I have 5 ZP90s sitting in a server rack in the basement connected through LAN, control them all through iphone/ipad. No need for sonosnet at all.

+1 to disable wireless from me as well

we are a sonos reseller and would appreciate the option to disable wireless when it's not needed. I sometimes have IT people blaming Sonos for their WAP woes and it would be much easier if I could just tell them 'there, I disabled all wireless'.

Less airwave pollution? As I have stated a few times in this thread, if Sonos is hardwired, it will use ethernet, and the airwave "pollution" it puts out will be negligible. It is not as if Sonos will be streaming via WiFi and ethernet simultaneously.

So, just to be clear, this means I can set my WiFi router to use the same channel as my SONOS system and (as long as all my Sonos boxes are wired) I will suffer very little drop in performance of my wireless system? That's great but wasn't clear to me until I read this thread! Something for the FAQ/user guides perhaps.

You are correct, but I'm confused as to why you want your WiFi to be the same channel as Sonos? There is really no benefit to it, with a wired or unwired system, and setting them to different channels is not difficult.
