Hi all, I use MusicBee on Windows 10 to manage my music library and sync it wirelessly to my phone using the Android app. I'm running DD-WRT in wireless client mode connected to a base router. If I connect my computer and my phone to the base router I can sync without a problem, but when I connect both to my DD-WRT TP-Link router the app can't see the sync server on the windows machine. Something in DD-WRT is blocking it, but I don't know what it is or where to begin troubleshooting this. It worked fine when I had the vanilla firmware on the C7.
The vanilla firmware in this router only effects the 5 Ghz radio per clarification earlier today. But from my experience degradation on the 5 G band can effect the lan side as well. Try switching to the vanilla firmware and see if this clears up your issue. _________________ ARCHER-C7v5 | v3.0-r55460 std | AP Gateway

I know the vanilla firmware clears it up because it worked when I had the vanilla firmware installed. It also works when I connect both the windows machine and phone to the Sagemcom base router. I looks to me like there's something in DD-WRT that's blocking the connection. There's something that needs to be disabled or enabled to allow the connection, I just don't know what it could be.

C7 v5 is ath10k QCA9880 for 5 GHz, QCA988X, so I do not think this router is included in binaries updates.
Which model is the base router? Avoid client modes, instead Ethernet run or matching hardware with WDS.
Base router is a Sagemcom, not sure about the model. I don't think it has anything to do with the base router because the problem is strictly when I've got the windows machine and the phone both connected to the Archer C7.
