VLAN Tagging Prohibits LAN Communication & SmartConnect Issues
Resurrecting a problem that this post had -- https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-Pro-Gaming-Routers/XR500-VLAN-tagging-making-wifi-devices-unable-to-communicate/td-p/1842061/page/3 Just bo...
It may be worth you upgrading to the beta and then using Traffic Controller to allow ALL traffic to those devices, that may help them communicate with each other.
How stable is the Beta at this point?
- It still has some issues that we will resolve with more builds but it should be stable enough, you can always downgrade if needed.
Any chance on an update for this? It's pretty infuriating that my router can't route LAN communication properly...
Did installing the beta and setting a rule in traffic controller resolve this? If not, what results are you seeing now?
I did not install the beta. I would like a solution that doesn't involve running beta software in a production enviroment.
- I will pass it on to NG, if they can identify the issue they may be able to provide a trial firmware with a potential fix but it wouldn't be a tested firmware - would you be willing to try that?
Sure! I would do that.
- Okay thank you I have passed it on.
