I want to isolate a device connected to LAN from other devices, but the AX86U GUI does not have this feature. I noticed that there is a way to use ebtables, but it doesn't seem to work?

Code:
ebtables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o br0 -j DROP
 
Sounds like you want VLAN. Do a search for VLAN to find some past discussion on various attempts to create VLAN's to isolate wired LAN clients. Example:

If one has a WRT5.0 3006.x supported Asus router they can try Guest Network Pro/VLAN feature found in the 3006.x firmware.
I know VLAN can achieve this feature, but AX86U does not provide it. I just need to isolate the devices, so I hope the method is as simple as possible.

Per the search links previous provided is the following discussion on using VLAN's on non Pro series routers:
