Description of Issue
Although the upgrade to 2.0 and ARC seemed to work well initially, I now cannot connect to the core via mesh. If I’m sat close to the mesh disc connected via ethernet to the core then the remote works as normal. RPIs will also connect to the core if they are forced to route through the primary wifi mesh disk. End points in other parts of the house which can’t see the primary mesh disk but are connected to the mesh network either via wifi or ethernet to a satellite mesh disk cannot see the core and are therefore unusable. The upgrade to 2.0 therefore seems to have killed the cores ability to see anything that isn’t either connected via ethernet, or connected to a mesh disk that is connected via ethernet.
Yes, connecting all of the mesh disks direct via ethernet would probably solve the problem and be great, but is unfortunately not possible without ripping my walls, floors and ceilings apart! Ultimately I’d just like the system to work via mesh like it did prior to 2.0. I’ve tried resetting the Mesh network and the vodafone route to no avail. Everything else connects to the internet fine via the mesh, so it seems to a be a new post-2.0 problem rather than a my network problem.
Have port changes introduced to allow ARC remote access somehow killed the ability for the core to be seen via a mesh network? If so, can I fix it?
