A network issue may be preventing the PLAY:1 from connecting wirelessly. Try moving the Sonos components closer together or use an Ethernet cable to connect the PLAY:1 to your router temporarily to check if the problem is related to wireless interference. If the issue persists, follow the troubleshooting steps or contact Sonos Customer Support.
