Can't access devices connected to range extender from router wifi
I have Archer VR600 v3, Firmware Version:1.6.0 0.9.1 v009e.0 Build 230809 Rel.6944n with a RE605X repeater connected to it with OneMesh, devices connected to the router wifi, cannot connect to devices connected to the repeater. I have DHCP disabled on the repeater and enabled on the router.
The repeater has static IP and I can't connect to the web interface when I am not in the same room.
For example, I have a Raspberry Pi with static IP on 192.168.1.120 with a webserver running, when it connects it can only be accessed on my phone only if I am in the same room, when I move to a different room, connection to that IP address fails.
Another issue I had is I was unable to connect to WhatsApp calls on my phone when connected to the repeater wifi.
There's another repeater TP-Link RE305 4.0 connected to the same mesh network and does not have these issues.

Hi,
Please try to ping the Raspberry Pi IP and also the router's LAN IP when you connect to the RE605X and provide the ping results.

Pinging the router from inside the Pi:

Pinging when my computer is not connected to the repeater, I also pinged it on the mDNS address just to check if it's reachable, but it wasn't:
