How to Factory Reset Your...

Welcome to Product Support, a series devoted to helping you get the most out of your stuff.

There are several reasons why you might want to factory reset your Sonos speaker. Maybe you moved and need to connect it to a new Wi-Fi network. Maybe you're giving your Sonos speaker to a friend. Maybe you're trading it in or looking to resell it.Or maybe the Sonos speaker just isn't working properly — it happens.

The good news is that it's fairly easy to return your Sonos speaker to its factory settings. It just requires a combination of you unplugging and replugging the speaker, as well as you holding down a button (or two) on the speaker.And it requires a little bit of patience, too.
