Two devices can't ssh or ping

I have two devices, a Mac and a raspberry pi, that are connected to the same orbi satellite on the same main wifi ssid and same subnet using DHCP. The Mac is connected at 6Ghz and the pi is connected...
orbi 970 series

An update. The problem seems to have disappeared after hardwiring the Mac to the satellite. This is not ideal since some of the Mac's features rely on wifi. Next, I will test wifi with the Mac's MAC address randomization disabled.
