1. The IP addresses have been the same for years with the same static IP addresses set in the devices themselves .... worked fine with 3 previous routers and always showed in the Network mapping.
2. The Plotter and MFP were set locally at the devices. Previous routers all had default gateway of 192.168.1.1 ... Asus 5300 obviously defaults to 192.168.50.1 .... As expected, I could not see the two devices nor could I print to them with gateway at 192.168.50.1 .
3. I remapped the AC5300 to 192.168.1.1 ... I still can see them in the network mapping and they print just fine. So yes, everything obviously matches just dandy. Only issue is I can't "see them" on network map. Previous D-Link, Netgear and SMC routers saw them just fine. Just re-hooked up the D-Link and it sees them fine with all same addresses.
4. Been looking for some kind of search feature where I could have it look and see what is at these specific IP addresses but no such feature found so far.
5. The Canon MFP shows in the Windows Network Mapping; the HP Plotter does not. i can ping both devices 4/ packets sent / 4 packets received / 0 ms round trip on HP, 1 ms round trip on Canon.
The networking is fine; the router just has a pair of blind spots
