This is not my experience on an RBR50 system. All devices ping all other devices (as long as they respond to ICMP requests. some do not.)
It is a bit unusual for the IP address to be the same for both the Ethernet and WiFi connections, as they have different MAC addresses and would be seen as different devices by the Orbi. (unless there are entries in the LAN assignment table assigning the same IP to both MAC addresses.)
