Can’t ping other devices connected to hotspot

Open xrisk opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

When I have more than one device connected to the hotspot, they are invisible to each other. Any packets I send to them don’t reach and I can’t ping them. Each device can ping the router fine, and the router can ping both devices.
