Certain types of traffic being blocked between Wired and Wireless Connections
Hello All,
I am having some issues with my XR500.
Certain types of traffic is being blocked and not working as it should between wired and wireless connections.
For example;
1. RDP (3389) only works between wired connections, it fails between wired and wireless which is extremely annoying.
2. Chromecast fails between wired and wireless connections as well when attempting to stream.
I have tried playing with the port forwarding/port triggering with no luck.
This is really starting to do my head in because it's on the same VLAN.
The only thing I can think of that could be causing it could potentially be the VLAN / Bridge Settings which I had to enable to get my NBN connection working out to the internet.
Any thoughts guys? I really need this resolved.
Thanks,
M

This also seems to be a common issue.
I should have purchased a router with simple features, this doesn't really make any sense as to why crap is blocked between wired/wireless connections. It is a stupid feature whatever is blocking it.
- On the beta version you could try allowing ALL traffic from each of those devices, that should in theory bypass any potential blocks that are occurring
Where abouts in the interface can I set that?
