Hi, I have OMV set on a machine. It is connected to a Mi router which is a WiFi repeater of my main WiFi network. Mi router has 5GHz mode, I have a LAN cable out from the OMV machine and plugged it into the Mi router's output LAN port.
ie, OMV - LAN Cable - Mi Router WiFi - ONT WiFi - My PC
The problem is that when I open my PC, go to Nautilus > Other Locations (in Ubuntu 22.04) , I can see the OMV shared drive listed as SMB. When I click it gives a " Connection Timed Out " error after a few seconds repeatedly.
Simply put, I can see the SMB share from OMV on PC but cannot access it even though both PC and OMV are connected to the same WiFi repeater SSID.
It will be helpful if I can make it work because 5GHz WiFi has better data transfer rates than a 2.4 GHz network on a stand-alone router which I am using now (and it works).
Thanks.

Only other thing I can think of is turning off NAT and DHCP on the Mi Router set up as a repeater to see if that makes a difference.
