ASUS RT-AC66U All AiMesh Nodes Stopped Working. Link + Data Lights on Router Ethernet Ports Still Function.

WAN (eth0), Wi-Fi (br0), and VPN (tun12) Still Working. LAN Ethernet & Wi-Fi use the same interface br0.

DHCP seems to work with Wi-Fi. DHCP Range 192.168.0.193 - 192.168.0.253. Everything Lower Than 192.168.0.193 is Statically Assigned.

Statically Assigning IP Address to Remote Ethernet Desktop Interface Not Working.

Layer-2 Seems to Work.

Layer-3 Seems to Work for WAN (eth0), Wi-Fi (br0), and VPN (tun12), but Not for LAN Ethernet.

Of the Successful ARP Responses Only SOME IP Addresses Can Be Pinged & Traced From The Router:

? (192.168.0.251) at 00:38:80:a9:f1:a9 [ether] on br0 (Phone: SUCCESS)
? (192.168.0.217) at 00:d5:bd:f7:dc:9e [ether] on br0 (Desktop: FAILED)
? (35.148.40.1) at 00:22:8e:d1:12:00 [ether] on eth0 (WAN: SUCCESS)
? (192.168.0.225) at 00:e2:2f:c3:56:6c [ether] on br0 (RokuExpress4K: SUCCESS)
? (192.168.0.197) at 00:42:01:6c:62:cc [ether] on br0 (Unknown: SUCCESS)

? (192.168.0.223) at 00:96:93:e0:af:a4 [ether] on br0 (Unknown: FAILED)

[Note: The SUCCESSES are all above the DHCP 192.168.0.193 address minimum and have WLCEVENTD wlceventd_proc_event(529): eth2: Assoc 00:42:01:6C:62:CC, status: Successful (0) entries within the syslog that suggest they are Wi-Fi related devices.]

Any Ideas as to what I may be missing?

Your Assistance is Greatly Appreciated.

UPDATE: It appears that all the LAN Ethernet Ports on the Primary Router Work Fine directly connected to an Apple or Windows Computer. It seems the issue is with the AiMesh Nodes originally connected to those same LAN ETH Ports. It must have something to do with the AiMesh implementation.

No Clients listed in the Client List and No AiMesh Nodes listed in the AiMesh Nodes List.

Any thoughts?

Thanks, again.
