I have a Sonos system in my house and have recently purchased an S5. I own a motorhome and would like to know if it is possible to use the sonos system to play music in the motorhome when away from home?
I also have an iphone, laptop, NAS and mobile phone dongle in case they would assist?

In theory yes you could.

If you wanted to play music from your own collection of MP3s then you would need to take the NAS (I assume this is where the music is stored) and a network switch with you to enable you to connect them together.

To play internet music you could connect the laptop to the switch as well and use the mobile dongle on the laptop and share the connection for other devices on the network to use it.

It's not 100% straightforward and a basic knowledge of networking would help in setting it up, but it is doable.

Thanks for answer Chuck. What i meant to saw was, i would like to access Napster and play it. Maybe the sonus S5 is confusing things.
Maybe a laptop, dongle and computer speakers would work better?

Was concerned the dongle would either incur a high data fee, or not be fast enough.
