Is this a continuation of your older discussion thread?

1. What firmware is the MR60 running?
2. Can either machine ping the MR60 LAN address?
3. Have you made sure that the Mac firewall doesn't have "Stealth mode" enabled?  That would block Jetson attempts to ping the Mac (but not vice-versa).
4. Are both machines connected to the same MR60 mesh element?
5. Are both machines getting their IP addresses with DHCP?

FWIW, there is an old unresolved discussion thread here that is related:

If you are still running V1.1.7.134_2.0.65.2 firmware, then start by updating it.

Jetson is an AI platform made by NVIDIA.  They run Jetson Linux (formerly called Linux for Tegra).  This is derived from Ubuntu.
