Symptoms: Devices do not appear in the discovery list when scanning the local subnet.
Root Cause: Usually caused by Wi-Fi isolation features enabled on the router, or Windows Defender blocking discovery broadcasts.
Resolution Steps

Step 2
Disable AP Isolation (client isolation) in your router settings.
Step 3
Check if Windows Defender Firewall has approved private network rules for Flash Connect.
How to Verify It's Solved
- Try pinging your phone's local IP address from your Windows PC command prompt.
