I have a Network set up with a Win10 desktop wired to an 8800NL (R1) via powerline (yes, I know... ). Two W10 laptops and Canon printer on wifi. All normally 'well', all can see each other.
Along comes the dreaded M$ update. Now the desktop cannot see the laptops (but bizarrely can see the printer?) Both laptops can 'see' the PC.
When I look at the 'Network' on the desktop it shows 'Ethernet3/private' as the connection.
There is obviously something I need to change! The question is, is it a router setting or can I 'direct' the desktop to join the wifi network?
UPDATE:
Laptop 2 can see Laptop 1 and Desktop. I can ping Laptop 2 from Desktop
Laptop1 can see Router and 'WMP' as a 'Media Player' on itself. I cannot ping Laptop1 from Desktop
Desktop can only see Router and Laptop1 WMP as a 'Media Player'
Colour me confused! I have done two router restarts. The betting is that at some indeterminate time this morning all will become 'normal' with no actual intervention by me.
I am also having issues with access here - although showing 'logged in' when I try to reply I have to re-log in!

What firmware version are you running (the full fw version)) so we can rule out the router as the issue
