EAX20 will not see media servers.
I just got a replacement EAX20 because the original one would not allow devices to see media servers whether wirekessly or if cabled. This one doess the exact same thing, none of my media servers wil...
I was looking at your network configuration a bit.
Is your EAX20 hardwired in and running in access point mode?
Also, if you hardwire the eax20 into the arris (maybe you've got a long cable or can just temporarily move it closer) does it work?
Yes.
what media servers are you running and what devices are you running them on?
- Plex media server on a Synology DS220+ and a Twonky server on a WD My Cloud EX2 Ultra.

- Yes, it's hardwired in and configured in access point mode. This makes no diffrence though. I've had it in extender mode connected wirelessly and it does the same thing. I can't plug it in directly to the Arris, and even if I could and it worked it wouldn't solve anything as I need it where it is located.
