, netgear has latest upgrades within the week.----firmware numbers help. especially in case others have the issues, a firmware team monitors, or if its not the latest. Its why we ask.a couple things you can try.
1. set a static ip address for the extender in the comcast box. in case its a comcast issue.
2. downgrade the firmware. maybe the extenders firmware is the issue
3. is the sonos box hardwired in or wireless? if wireless, try changing the wifi band and/or channel used.
4. check the sonos site. maybe a firmware update from sonos caused the issue.
