Hello,
I have a Xiaomi AX3600 router with OpenWRT 24.10.1.
For a few weeks now, I've been having trouble pinging Android phones from one machine.
When I test the ping from the router, it works.

From another machine (Raspberry/Windows, etc.), it doesn't always work.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, and without any action.

I don't know what file or screenshot to give you to help me diagnose the problem.

Thank you.

Since you're double NATing, from where to where, network wise ?

all ips are from Lan (192.168.1.XXX)
all ips are static

Then Openwrt isn't really touching the traffic.

Post your /etc/config/network file.

Ok, do the same with the wireless file.

Probably Windows AV firewall blocking traffic? Maybe phones ignore pings when asleep (Wi-Fi power saving feature)? Your configs look good but still go to wireless Luci & check if AP/client isolation is disabled.

Try keeping only one radio either radio0 or radio1 (they have same SSID) so clients won't jump between them & cause issues with ARP binding.
