      Thanks for your feedback! We're sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with the Sony | BRAVIA Connect app pairing to your Theater Bar 8 and staying connected to Wi-Fi. We understand how frustrating this can be, and we want to help you resolve it.

      Please make sure your Wi-Fi network is stable and that the soundbar is within range of your router, you can also try restarting your router and the soundbar. Uninstall the Sony | BRAVIA Connect app from your phone or tablet and then reinstall it—this can sometimes clear up any bugs or corrupted data—and ensure your soundbar has the latest firmware installed.

      If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact our customer support team directly at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=ht
