    It was a hidden netgear router which causes the problem. I disconnected it and it's all oke now.

    So if you install a new router be asure that all the "old" netgear stuf is out of the wirde network.

Appreciate it if you can make some clarifications:

  • So Orbi is in Router Mode and the ISP router is bridged, right?
  • If Orbi in Router mode, what DHCP address range do you have set?
  • The Denon AVR is wired to Orbi, right?
  • The Denon AVR has a static IP address set on the Denon or in Orbi? What is the static IP address?
  • Do you have any DHCP address reservations set in Orbi for the phones?
  • I guess your're saying that you're streaming music from the Denon to the phones and music stops when the the phone moves from mobile network (4G) to wifi, is that correct? what is the traffic case please?

    Hi Ekhalil,

    Hereby the answers.

    So Orbi is in Router Mode and the ISP router is bridged, right?
    YES

    If Orbi in Router mode, what DHCP address range do you have set?
    standard by orbi: 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.248

    The Denon AVR is wired to Orbi, right?
    YES

    The Denon AVR has a static IP address set on the Denon or in Orbi? What is the static IP address?
    192.168.1.145

    Do you have any DHCP address reservations set in Orbi for the phones?
    NO

    I guess your're saying that you're streaming music from the Denon to the phones and music stops when the the phone moves from mobile network (4G) to wifi, is that correct?
    NO, the AVR plays while we are using the HEOS app. So it works through WiFi -> wired network -> AVR (it don’t work with G4). It was working before ORBI (my old WiFi/wired network)

    what is the traffic case please?
    I don’t understand this question.
