[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1827790, member: 110816"] You are not connecting directly to the Sonos but rather to it through your network. To that end, it doesn't matter how you join the network, as long as you are on the same network. The only issue might be that if you have the dual WiFi networks (2.4 Ghz and 5Ghz), they might actually be separate networks (with different SSIDs). You can confirm that by going to your Mac and going to System Preferences->Network and selecting the Ethernet (green) connection and looking at the IP Address and Router values. Now go to the Sonos (assuming it can display that info on it) or the Sonos app that you use to manage the device and see if you can grab the network info for it. If they are both in the same IP range (the first 3 values should match) and the same router, then you should be able to talk. But if the numbers differ, that's your culprit. [/QUOTE]
