Can route to host via wired, but not wireless
I'm running v2.3.5.30. I have 2 NAS boxes in my house in 2 different locations. They are both connected wired back to the Orbi router. When I use a wireless device, I can easily get to one of the ...
How do you connect to the NAS box?
IP address or some sort of "name"?
Web browser? Special software?
"Device" is?
The NAS box is a simple Synology NAS that I have configured with a fixed IP address configured in the orbi router static table. When I can't see it... I can't connect via nfs or the web server configured on the box. Ping tells me "request timeout" when I attempt to ping the static ip. I turn off wifi and plug in a hard wired cable... and everything works. Unplug the cable and turn wifi back on... can't find the ip. This occurs from two different devices... though both of them are MacOS ( has occured across siera and catalina )... Even when it can't see the NAS box... it can see the public network with no issue.
