Question about Sonos Boost
Bought a Sonos One SL to test it before equipping my whole house with Sonos products. My 2.4 Ghz Wi-Fi connection at home is extremely erratic (Salt Fiber). Sonos states that if you have wifi connection problems, ONE product can be connected directly to the router. This can be any Sonos product. What concrete advantage does the Boost have over the One SL as an "access point"? By the way, my house has three floors, all of which will be equipped with Sonos products.
Hello, the boost is supposed to provide more range and, unlike the bridge, is not yet listed as a legacy product. If a LAN cable from the router to the first sonos component is feasible, then you do not need a boost. As far as your WiFi is concerned, the problems are most likely with sonos as well, but the boost won't solve them either. I had serious problems and changed router and repeater several times, but nothing helped. Since I entered a DHCP reservation for all participants in the router setup, the problems are gone.
