Description
Problem Description
Two client devices connect to the same 5G Wi-Fi access point (AP) provided by the MT7613 chipset on a router (SoC: MT7621, 2.4G: MT7603, 5G: MT7613). Both clients obtain IP addresses in the same subnet, but they cannot ping each other.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the MT7613 5G access-point topology with two clients on the same subnet and confirm that client-to-client ping fails. Trace the MT7613 driver and networking behavior involved in peer communication; done means both clients can communicate normally while connected to the same AP.
