How to disable wireless isolation on C7100V

I have a C7100V router and I'd like to disable wireless isolation. I've looked through the settings and can't find anywhere to disable wireless isolation.

 

I need to disable this because I need the computers in my home to be able to talk to each other and this isolation seems to be preventing it.

 

Please advise.

    Thanks for your help. I didn't put in all the details because I wasn't sure how technical it all should be.

     

    My C7100V is my only network hardware. 

     

    I have a Raspberry Pi computer that has VNC set up on it. The Raspberry Pi is connected to my network wirelessly. I can remotely connect to it if I am outside of the house (I have port forwarding set up). I can also connect to the VNC server if I am connected to my home's router via an Ethernet connection. I cannot connect if I am connected to my home via a wireless connection.

     

    Posting in another forum suggested that I need to disable wireless isolation. Since I couldn't figure out how to do that, I thought I would ask here. 

     

    Thanks again for your help.
