Odd Ping bug I have discovered
Okay so this is going to sound odd but here it goes. So I decided to the other day to do some random ping testing to see what my MS are between devices. Well for know my ASUS ROG laptop is connected ...

Can you please clarify "wasn't showing"? i.e. Did not respond to ping? Was not present on the Attached Devices display?

Well it was showing in the Attached Devices Display on the orbi login page but what I ment was for network like you would see in windows explorer on your PC.
Let me provide another example, I have a roku that connects to my first sattelite, well I sometimes use the roku app on my phone as a roku remote. My phone was coennected to the orbi router on the wifi and my roku wasn't showing up on my phone, Well I had disconnected and reconnected my phone to my secound satteltie and this time the phone saw the roku and was able to connect.
So in that since for some reason my devices will get kinda finiky sometimes and not see each other if one deivce is connected to the router and one on a sattleite, and its either the first or sometimes secound sattlilte this happens too. But If a deivce is already connected to a sattllite then it has no issues with seeing other devices on the netowrk. Thats what I'm saying,
