Re: Wireless can't ping wireless (SOLVED)
For those following this thread I solved the problem by getting a new router. Here's a quick recap: - I found I couldn't ping a wireless device from another wireless device. - I could not ping a wireless device from a wired device unless I pinged the wired device from the wireless device first (try saying that 3 times fast). - I then started noticing other strange things, a wireless device that could ping a wired device a few moments ago could not now do it. - Eventually all of my wireless stuff decided they didn't want to see my printer anymore. I was originally using a LinkSys E3000 which I have had for many years. I could have attempted to upgrade the firmware but chose not to do it. I bought a Netgear R6200 (AC1200) Dual Band Gigabit router. So far it has solved all of the above problems. It seems to be a bit faster than the old router as well. So, thanks to all who helped me with this. I will try to return the favor someday.
