Had the same issue, this addressed it for me: https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-nextcloud/issues/288

Cool, welcome to the hobby! If you can set up that 5 port switch upstairs, then plug your "access point" and that PC into that switch, I think that'll address the immediate need. I think you might be putting clients downstream from the "access point" into a double NAT situation (and maybe that has something to do with your current issue?) I'm not enough of a networking guy to explain why double NAT is a problem, I just know enough to know if you put yourself in that situation unintentionally with consumer gear, problems can arise

Sorry, I skimmed your first post and didn't read thoroughly enough - so I think some of what I said in my prior post is inaccurate too. But, it still sounds like you're trying to piece together a network with what you have on hand, and it's resulting in some undesired behavior. I don't think the age of the "access point router" has anything to do with it. I wouldn't recommend replacing it with the same router as your "main" router, unless that model is set up with ability to chain together multiple to "bridge and extend" another router. Not sure if you're just new to Unraid or you're new to servers and Linux in general - some people start in this hobby by running an extra laptop with an external hard drive, fast forward 2 years and they're running a setup like this guy. So if that's you, maybe this is an excuse to level up your network hardware 🤷‍♂️😆

edited: I did not read the original post correctly - seems like something is going on with name resolution (NetBIOS?) This is not an SMB issue. I think by having a router (as an access point) downstream from another router, you've actually created two separate networks. I would guess that any computer connected to the "access point" cannot even ping another machine that's on the upstream router's network, and vice versa. I believe you could set up manual routing between the two, but I don't think this will be intuitive at all (if even possible) on the regular consumer gear I'm assuming you have. I would focus on investing in a better networking setup - one where multiple access points are actually the same network. I've been happy with my Ubiquiti gear. If I were in your situation and starting from scratch, I'd look at a Ubiquiti UDM Pro, plus two access points - one for where your router is now, and another for where you've extended your network with another access point. Ubiquiti makes it easy to have multiple access points on the same network. It's a bit pricey though - perhaps others can chime in with other recommendations. Good luck

Don't get the Fractal Design Define XL R2 Get the new Define 7 XL! https://www.fractal-design.com/products/cases/define/define-7-xl/black/

Put https:// in front of the ip:port manually, it should load once you do that.

*raises hand* Same here.
