Sonos & wired connection to satelites

The never ending fight to get Sonos to work with Orbi! Like many people I have lots of dropouts with Sonos speakers which are all sat very close to my satellites. So I tried wiring two of them with the Orbi but that seems to have connected the two satellites in some sort of virtual wired connection which is affecting the general wifi quality - see photo (the sonos speakers are wired to living room and kitchen. I can't wire to the sonos speakers to the hub because of where it is. I'm still struggling to understand the best set-up for sonos on Orbi.  The quality of the wifi network is brilliant but Sonos struggles

Re: Sonos & wired connection to satelites

sonos is notorious for not working right with mesh systems.

I'd try googling on their forums for the best solution to working with a mesh system.
