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
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.

- Help258AspirantI 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.
- hunkofmonkAspirantI can confirm the issue still persists on Firmware V10.8.12.7
