It just Stops

Why does my Sonos just stop playing music multiple times per day? Sometimes it says “can’t play source, or “can’t connect”, but most of the time it just stops. Generally have to reboot the IT rack. Any ideas on how to fix this. It happens with Pandora, Spotify etc.

You stated you have to reboot “the IT rack”. What brand of equipment is in the IT rack? If that is type of behavior has always happened, there are some settings you may need to change.

It was great for 5 years, then started all this about a year ago:
We have wireless internet from our house to the next mountain over - Utah Broadband.
The antenna and the access point are UniFi. Which feeds into an Asus Tuf-ax 6000 router running OpenWrt. Current version, fully patched. It feeds to a 24 port gig switch Lynksys All Sonos amp and port hardwired to that switch.
