Sonos is a trusted name in the home sound system industry, bringing high-quality products to homes and businesses around the world. Unfortunately, as with any other piece of electronics, things can arise that cause the product to not function as intended, and the Sonos Beam speaker is no different. There are several reasons as to why Sonos Beam speakers not connecting (how to fix), and most of them can be easily resolved in a matter of minutes.
The first thing to check when your Sonos Beam speakers are not connecting is that they are connected to the proper Wi-Fi network and not connected to a guest network. Next, ensure the cable running from the speakers to the television is secured.
You should also double check that the Sonos Beam is selected as the output audio on the TV. If all that checks out, the next troubleshooting method is to power cycle the television. This will require unplugging the TV and the speaker from the electrical outlet and wait for about 5 minutes.
After the allotted time has passed, plug the two devices back into the electrical outlet and turn them on. Try reconnecting the two to ensure they both work properly.
If you’re still having issues connecting the Sonos beam speaker, consider reaching out to the Sonos customer support. They can help determine if the issue is a more serious one that will require replacing the entire speaker.

The Sonos app allows you to control the speaker right from the comfort of your device. It can be difficult to take advantage of all that the speaker has to offer if you cannot get it to connect to the app.
If your Sonos Beam speakers are not connecting to the app, the first thing to check is that you are connected to the Wi-Fi network. Navigate to your Wi-Fi settings on your device and confirm that it is the same network as the Sonos Beam speaker.

This is done by opening the Sonos app and then clicking on Settings > System > Network > Wireless Set Up. Then simply follow the steps to complete the process. You will need to enter the Wi-Fi password and then the app will display a confirmation message confirming that your Sonos player is connected to your Wi-Fi network.
