    Hi Iyang, 

     

    The Sonos devices below had problems on wireless using FW 1.0.12.120. For troubleshooting, I disabled WiFi 6 on the router. There were no problems with Ethernet. It is not practical to use Ethernet with my setup, so I reverted back to the older FW.

     

    Playbar - 2.4g (I don't believe 5g is supported.)

    Play:1 - 2.4/5g

     

    Are there any serious security vulnerabilities with the previous FW? I was thinking of waiting for the next FW release.
