I just installed a mesh WiFi network in addition to my ISP-provided router that could barely reach upstairs. I had some locally hosted services set up as per Mediabox. All containers were set up with my machine IP(?) 192.xxx.x.xx and were working great inside my network, which is all I wanted to do while I'm learning. I noticed today that if I connect via the other, mesh WiFi network that this IP can't be accessed, despite it being the same machine. What's going on?

All advice much appreciated as I am (obviously) a self hosting novice!

Yo! Based on some of the other answers this seems spot on. I guess the problem is that I was kinda running two routers, when really I wanted the mesh system to act as a series of access points for the original network. I don't know - but I can confirm that turning the mesh system into 'Access Point Mode' fixed this issue for me
