Hello @potsblitz
Sonos only supports 2.4GHz networks, not 5Ghz networks. I strongly recommend that you connect one of the Sonos speakers directly to the IB2 via a LAN cable to test it. A separate (invisible) network is then created just for the Sonos components.
If this is absolutely impossible, try using the Sonos app to check which channel the WiFi is running on. If necessary, adjust there. Do you have many active WLANs in the area?
But I really had the best experience with the player connected directly to the router via cable. If anything, take a look at the Sonos Booster.

The new WLAN-Box for the Internet-Box 2 can be used as an access point or repeater and has very good performance.

@fmueller there is no LAN in my kitchen. And I only have one box. I was hoping the IB2 had better WiFi. But I can’t retire the FB 7390 yet. (better is always relative)
Then it gets more difficult with the cable 😉
But @WalterB’s suggestion is also a solution. The WLAN box is then connected to the IB2, and you plug the Sonos player into the WLAN box via WLAN. Since the box connects to 2.4GHz and/or 5GHz, you will probably have less interference.
