Troubleshooting
Sonos Roam 2 won't connect to Wi-Fi.
Ensure your Wi-Fi router is on and broadcasting. Move the speaker closer to the router. Restart both your Roam 2 and your router. Verify your Wi-Fi password is correct in the Sonos app. If issues persist, try factory resetting the Roam 2 and setting it up again via the Sonos app.

Ensure no other devices are trying to connect to the Roam 2. Move your connected device closer to the speaker. Clear previous Bluetooth connections from your device and the Roam 2, then re-pair them. Reduce potential interference from other wireless devices.
Speaker not turning on or charging.
Ensure the USB-C cable is fully inserted into both the speaker and a working power adapter (at least 5V/1.5A for charging). Try a different USB-C cable or power adapter. If using a wireless charger, ensure the speaker is correctly placed and the charger is powered on.
Sound quality is poor or distorted.
