All, Over the last few years, we have had to get a number of Sonos devices connected. Each version of Sonos has its own special onboarding charm. I am clearly not a fan. Here is what we have on our website: [ https://www.ias.edu/wireless-resources | https://www.ias.edu/wireless-resources ] On our Cisco WLC, we have had to add the service type _sonos.tcp.local. to mDNS.

If you’ve had the pleasure of setting some of these up you may know why I need to ask. They don’t really like to individually be directed to join a network and they don’t really have a UI that just lets you log in a manage a units network connection. The best I’ve come up with is a kind of convoluted process that requires setting them up wired first and then directing the set you want to manage with a given (newly required) user account to join the network at the same time. I think there’s also differences between product lines. So far my experience is with Play:1’s, Play:5’s, and Connects which our process works with.
