soundbridge works most of the time
Given the stated distance Sonos nodes are supposed to transmit between, I shouldn't have needed the sound bridge, but highly intermittent reception forced me to buy it. It's worked fine except last week when it just dropped from the network. Going through the "find new node" process rediscovered it and it's working fine again. Coincidentally, one of my controllers froze up at the same time, so I guess you just have to get used to fixing it. At least that's very simple.

Fixed a few drop-outs in remote Sonos Zones when Microwave was running
I have eight zones spread over four floors. Two of the zones are near each other, but remote from all the others. When running a nearby microwave, they would sometimes drop the music for several seconds. I installed one sonos bridge, which helped reduce drop outs from once every couple days to once a week or so. Since installing the second bridge, there have not been more dropouts for those remote zones (about three weeks)

Simple and effective
My Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station is centrally located in my house. The PC that stores all my music was at the far end of the house. Before the ZoneBridge 100 (BR100) I had to "waste" a ZonePlayer 80, a $350 investment. Now I have the BR100 connected directly to the Base Station. It simply sits on top of the Base Station, with no noticeable impact on range or wireless performance. I am able to listen to my music files throughout the entire house AND connect to Rhapsody's online music service. The BR100 is easy to setup and, IMO, very cost effective.

Simple and functional
The Sonos system is great, but expensive. If you don't need sound output or input near your router, hook up one of these as the network connection point for the rest of the system. It's a lot cheaper than a ZonePlayer and it works perfectly.

Finally! I have an extra ZP100 for my family room
When I first got the Sonos system, I was very disappointed that the first unit
had to be hardwired to the router. My router was in the library where the ZP100
did not see much use. This little bridge changes that. It was
a snap to install. Within 10 minutes, I was able to free up my ZP100 that
was hooked up to the router and viola! I have a new zone in my family room.
