    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.

Do your phones pair with your AVR?  Hence, your AVR is playing over your speakers, and then when your phone devices get in range, it pairs and sends the music to those devices.  This happens to my wife with her car from time to time.  Her phone will pair with the car, not realizing it.  A call comes in and all of the sudden she hears the speakers on the car ringing.

No, its not a pairing isue. We are using the HEOS app. It was working in my old WiFi/wired network.
