RAX20 Devices on Network can't communicate.

Question

Hi Everyone,&nbsp;I have a weird issue with my RAX20.&nbsp; My home network seems to have some sort of AP isolation set.&nbsp; I can't ping other devices or Remote connect from one machine to another.&nbsp; When I bring the laptops to work RDP is no issue.&nbsp; Tried with firewalls off, tried with port forwarding.&nbsp; No clue what's going on.&nbsp; I can't find any sort of security setting that would be blocking internal communication.&nbsp; Any suggestions would be appreciated.&nbsp;Thank you.

1. what modem/gateway is the router connected to? Modem is a hiltronics, this shouldn't be a factor because if I disconnect it the problem persists.

2. what firmware is on the router? V1.0.11.112_2.0.77

3. Do you have your home network set as private on the windows pc's? No I don't and they work when I bring them to work.

4. Is there a difference from wired devices to wireless? Yes! I can ping hardwired devices from wireless devices.

4. Is there a difference from wired devices to wireless? Yes!&nbsp; I can ping hardwired devices from wireless devices.---If you can ping them, the router is going its job. Its something in how you're implementing RDP or your settings

Its current. Ever tried any factory reset to see if it works with the default settings?&nbsp;This will be my next step&nbsp;3. Do you have your home network set as private on the windows pc's? No I don't and they work when I bring them to work.---they should be set on private for windows pc's on a home networkSorry yes I do have it set as private.&nbsp; Even when the firewall is turned off though I can't ping machines.&nbsp;4. Is there a difference from wired devices to wireless? Yes!&nbsp; I can ping hardwired devices from wireless devices.---If you can ping them, the router is going its job. Its something in how you're implementing RDP or your settings.&nbsp;Strangely though RDP works on the machines anywhere else.&nbsp;It's very strange that any devices on the wireless network can't ping one another, however, I can ping the router and wired devices.

Are any of your wireless devices on a guest network?&nbsp;If yes, is your guest network configured to allow guests to see each other and have access to the local network?
