WAX615 Inter-VLAN issue between clients across multiple SSIDs

As seen in multiple threads (supposedly resolved for other models):

Solved: Inter-VLAN routing issue only via Wi-Fi - NETGEAR Communities

https://community.netgear.com/t5/Business-Wireless/WAX630E-VLAN-bug/td-p/2325009/highlight/true/page/2

 

An issue I am facing in WAX615 (currently on firmware v10.8.11.4)

With temporary 'allow-all' firewall rules:

Wired devices in any subnet can access Wireless clients hosted services on any VLAN / SSID.

Wireless clients in any VLAN / SSID can access any Wired device hosted services.

Wireless clients attempting to communicate with a wireless client in a different VLAN / SSID will not communicate properly.

The receiving device gets a TCP connection initiated but no SYN-ACK is forwarded to the client initiating the connection.

ICMP does respond properly between devices.

 

Can I get a status update on if this issue is present and known on WAX615 and if this can be resolved, or can support be in touch.

    I faced the same issue, but since it wasn’t a known problem, I contacted support. I followed their instructions, and my issue was resolved.

      Would be good to give details on what support had you do to resolve the issue you had.
