Where is traffic separation for the Guest network?
Set up the AX 6000 to replace a 4 unit Orbi Pro system with only minor hiccups. One of the main reasons I used the pro was the ability, VS the regular orbi at the time, to separate the three networks....

Thanks for the explanation. It sounds to me like changing the subnet for the guest network might address your issue. The instructions for doing so are in post no. 7, here:
This should prevent the DLNA packets from being seen on the guest network. It's worth a shot if you want to try it.
Why do you think changing the Guest wireless subnet from the default 192.168.2.0 to something else would address the OPs issue?
Changing the subnet is not going to have any impact on the filtering between the LAN and Guest subnets.
I see no reason why if the DLNA packets aren't being filtered with the default settings changing the subnet to something different is going to cause them to be filtered.
I think the OP needs to ensure that if their Orbis are physically connected that they are not connected through a switch. If that's not the issue then I'm wondering if the new generation of Orbis has the same lack of basic isolation as previous generations but if that's the case then my testing was not thorough enough.

There is a switch between the Orbis but that doesn't influence how the Pro behaves in terms of separating the three networks (at least in any way that affects the ability of the Tesla to connect).
