Hi, I’m glad you got it sorted.
I’m also happy to report that the Sonos speakers I have are working quite well with the Eero Max 7 wi-fi7 capable router. In case anyone was looking at that package they can rest easy that there are no known confleicts as of this moment.

Our previous router was almost 10 years old and we were having issues with the Sonos speakers staying connected. After my wife did a fair amount of research, she discovered some great comments on a social network site that talked about our new router specifically. They observed that if you turn off the Smart connect, which leaves it up to the router to decide which network, 5G or 2.4G your device needs to connect, and instead, have a designated 2.4G for Sonos and a 5G for everything else and connect Sonos to the 2.4G, the problems of Sonos speakers disconnecting, reconnecting, etc., goes away. Brilliant! We exclaimed! It took about 6 hours, going through each of our 10 speakers a total of three times, once on our own, once with a Sonos rep, and lastly with a NETGEAR support person, to finally get them all working better than they ever had. The NETGEAR support person had to change the default channel the 2.4G network was set to use and now all is running very smoothly. She set it to channel 11, which is in the range the Sonos person suggested. Time will tell, but I'm very optimistic.
