Unable to connect to other connected devices
I have a R7000 that is having routing issues with LAN traffic. Here is the connected devices list: The problem is with the Aurora system (2.101) - it cannot connect (nor ping) any of the dev...
I really wish I knew what I did to get it to work. I have flushed dns, disable/enabled wireless adapters, full hard reset on the router. I changed the DNS server from being 192.168.2.1 (the router) as primary to Google's 8.8.8.8 as primary with the secondary being the local router. I wasn't able to ping the brixserver via hostname but I was able to ping the IP after about 1000 attempts. When I pinged, I browsed to the server as \\192.168.2.102\ and it came back without a problem. Weird.
It didn't let me post the info on the pings for some reason. Here they are:

Also, try to disable for any firewalls.
What's the firmware version installed on your firmware?
Can other computers ping that Aurora OS?
I have gotten it to partially work - it works with IPs but not by system name so it is something with DNS now.
