Range of a Sonos bridge

[skibum]

Afternoon all,

I'm hoping to be moving into my new place in the next couple of months and it will provide me with an excuse to extend my Sonos set up. Currently I have a Play 3, Play 5 and a Connect. That serves me well in my 2 bed flat, but the new house is much bigger and as such I'm looking to add a Play bar for the lounge/TV, put the Play 5 in the kitchen, Play 3 in the bedroom and use the connect for my old seperates which will be in the study/gym room.

At the moment I use the connect to generate the Sonos wifi link and the bridge is still in the box. However, with the units spread around the house more and with the thought of getting another Play3 for the garage/garden duties, I was going to hook the bridge up and use that for the network.

Question is - has anyone experienced any range issues and is it at all realistic to expect a Play 3 in a detatched garage (about 20m max from the house) to pick up the signal?

Cheers

Sonos is clever in that it builds its own mesh network.

So although the bridge might not reach, the box nearest the garage might be able to give you the hop.

Is there mains down there? you could always use a powerline Network box to get a network connection down at that end.

The garage does have power so it looks like i have options. Will look and see if it connects on it's own first and then pop back for advice. Cheers
