Can’t communicate between wireless bands on a satellite
Really disappointed with brand new 373 +2 satellite kit. Hoping I’ve made a rookie mistake but… My issue seems to be specific to satellites. Client devices on the same SSID can’t communicate betwe...
So I put a couple of devices on the IoT ssid on the same satellite, checked they were on different bands, and found they could communicate fine, so it seems like the issue does not occur on the IoT SSID, only on the main SSID.
Ok checked my 770 series system. One RBS connected wirelessly to the RBR. Connected up a old ASUS RT-AC66U router in wireless bridge mode connected at 2.4Ghz. Placed the ASUS bridge near the RBS to ensure it connected there. Have on HP laptop connected ethernet to the back of the ASUS bridge. Getting a 192.168.1.110 IP address for the HP laptop. ASUS bridge is set to static IP address of 192.168.1.66. Both connected at the RBS. Have a Dell Desktop PC connected to the same RBS with a AX210 series wifi adapter connecting at 6Ghz here. Getting an IP address of 192.168.1.116 for the DELL PC. All connected to the main WLAN.
Ping is successful from the Dell PC to both the Asus bridge and HP laptop:
Ping from HP laptop connected behind the ASUS bridge is successful as well pinging the DELL PC on 6Ghz.
I'll see if I can get my 370 series online some time this week and check that one. Possible some odd issue with the 370 series.
I recommend that you start a debug log capture on the RBS and have your devices connected to the main WLAN and reproduce the problem. Save off afterwards for NG to review.
