Review: sorts out Sky Q mesh network issues - Never used to have any issues with the Sonos network until having Sky Q and SkY Q mini boxes installed in the house. After they arrived, the Sonos platform was useless. Also there was interference with desertcart Prime sticks and watching Netlfix or desertcart on my Samsung Q60 TV. Bought the Boost to sort out the networking conflicts and it works perfectly - instantly connects to my 7 devices, no lag and best of all, the Prime sticks and Netlix / Prime videos work on the TV. Pricey for what it is but well worth the money to sort out all the conflicts! Review: If you need one, you will probably be very pleased to get one! - A Sonos system should be rock solid and just work. The controllers should be responsive. If this isn't the case without a Boost, it should be with one. My system worked perfectly without a Boost in my previous house, where there was 3-5 m and a brick wall between each of the Sonos units. In my new house, where the units were 8-10 m and a wall apart, I was finding some rooms sporadically disappearing from the Sonos network and it was slow to respond to e.g. volume changes. With the Boost, it now works properly again. The Boost has an excellent range. My Sonos units were struggling to connect from one room to the next, but I successfully connected a Sonos box to the Boost when they were separated by two large rooms (22 m and three walls apart). As mobile phones can connect to the internet via SonosNet, this is a useful way to get good wireless coverage everywhere in a large house. The only real negative (as I think the price is not unreasonable for such a powerful router), is that adding a Boost to an existing system seems to require that you completely set up your Sonos system again, adding units one at a time, starting with the Boost. ## Features - Connectivity technology: Ethernet - Meet the most powerful wireless product we've ever built - BOOST provides enterprise-grade wireless performance for unparalleled reliability, - Ideal for homes with wireless connectivity problems ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00NY0YWH0 | | Best Sellers Rank | 15,961 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 219 in Media Streaming Devices | | Guaranteed software updates until | unknown | | Item model number | BOOSTUK1 | | Manufacturer | SONOS | | Product Dimensions | 11.5 x 11.5 x 3.3 cm; 190 g | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Sonos - **Colour:** white - **Frequency band class:** Dual-Band - **Special feature:** Enterprise-Grade Wireless Performance - **Wireless communication standard:** 802.11ac ## Images ![Sonos BOOST Wireless Performance Component, White,BOOSTUK1 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Xs5djB07L.jpg) ![Sonos BOOST Wireless Performance Component, White,BOOSTUK1 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61EPTPv9G6L.jpg) ![Sonos BOOST Wireless Performance Component, White,BOOSTUK1 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61q0b-7sv6L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the difference between this and the older model?** A: According to Sonos the boost gives a much wider and stronger signal range. It is aimed at people wanting music in their garden during the summer, or people who live in densely populated areas with a lot of interference.Remember you can then use the old bridge as a repeater to make the signal go even further.I should mention at this point that when setting up the boost it is important to introduce it to your system BEFORE connecting it to the broadband hub, otherwise you will end up inadvertently setting up a new system and you will loose all your saved playlists, room settings and accounts. **Q: If this neutralises wifi signals, does it stop your home wifi working? Or does it make that more effective too?** A: Installed for two weeks. Sonos now working perfectly and home wifi completely unaffected. **Q: can you still connect this device with Android phones, and still use more than one speakers?** A: This is to create a separate network for your Sonos system. You will still be able to connect your phone to the system. It is to stop other hardware which is connected to the wifi so you don't get drop outs from losing the bandwidth **Q: I'm assuming the Boost will work with Sonos Connect's?** A: Don't forget that it will not work with the CR100 controllers which are about to be disconnected from the Sonos family :( ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ sorts out Sky Q mesh network issues *by M***D on 21 July 2020* Never used to have any issues with the Sonos network until having Sky Q and SkY Q mini boxes installed in the house.

I got the boost so that I could have signal in the wooden hut in my garden. I have an almost uninterrupted signal. It does however drop out occasionally but reconnects very quickly and with minimal fuss. The boost is upstairs so the signal has an upstairs wall plus the 5 metre gap between my outside hut and the house plus the wooden hut wall to go through. Although I have not tried the bridge I would highly recommend getting the boost for the better and more reliable connection. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sonos BOOST Wireless Performance Component, White,BOOSTUK1 - Sonos Era 300 | Spatial Audio Smart Speaker with WiFi, Bluetooth, with Amazon Alexa, Dolby Atmos - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/47931670-sonos-boost-wireless-performance-component-white-boostuk1](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/47931670-sonos-boost-wireless-performance-component-white-boostuk1) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
