Adding a Sonos Play 3

My router can't find my sonos play 3 speaker, so I can't add it to my network to control via my phone. I do not know what gigaherz my box is working on, which I believe makes a difference.

@Munchkin3

Sonos tend only to work on the 2.4ghz wifi band

To seperate the wifi into 2 seperate wifi:-

Also if using a mobile app to install the speakers make sure you assign to the newly created 2.4ghz frequency

Thank you for your response. By some fluke, after 6hrs I have just established a connection.
