I have seen several topics on issues with Sonos and Orbi, but none of them helped me. I am unable to connect my Sonos Play 1 to my new Orbi network I have the RBK13 AC1200 with firmware V2.3.6.18 and the Sonos Play1 speaker (I have 2, both wont connect). Wired connection works fine, but once I disconnect the wired connection, the Sonos disappears from the network. I factory reset the Sonos. During installation using the Sonos app, I find the sonos using Bluetooth, but once it asks which wireless network I would like to connect with, it throws an unexpected error. Are there specific setting I need to use on Orbi. I put my route in bridge mode to the Orbi.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @bdriessen
Kindly update the firmware to v2.5.1.30. It fixes the compatibility issue with Sonos devices. Here's the release notes:

Are you using the same SSID name and PW on Orbi that you had use prior on your old wifi router?

Re: Cannot connect wireless with Sonos PLay 1 on Orbi RBK13
Try to disable the wifi security temporarily on the RBR. Then try to connect the Sonos to the system. Does it connect at all?
Then re-enable WPA and TPIK. Does it connect any? Then try WPA2 and AES only...
