Can't ping a node in my cluster but was able to join the cluster just fine. No other network access

[warloxian]

I am still an amateur at Linux networking, but I am learning. I have 6 nodes in my cluster. All have Proxmox 8. 1 node isn't showing up on my router or switches. The web interface works fine and I am able to log into it. I am unable to ping anything from the faulty node, nothing inside or outside. I was able to add this node to my cluster.
Basically, this node is invisible to everything on my network and I have no access to wan. I am able to ssh into this node from any device on my network and I am able to ssh into every device on my network from this node. Even though i am unable to ping from or to this node from anywhere on my network , I am able to access the web gui and was able to join the cluster. The only other mystery , to me, is that when i run nmap from this node it picks up every device on my network and shows my all open ports. This is so weird and I haven't been able to find an answer after a couple weeks of searching. I have looked at

This is a very basic lab that has absolutely nothing important. I have 6 old servers that I use to practice penetration testing. But I know I can never be a good pen tester unless I understand how networking works COMPLETELY!!! Please help me to become a professional and I will reciprocate once I have answers.

Thank you for spending some of your valuable time trying to assist this wanna be ethical hacker

Have you stored your DNS correctly in resolv.conf? What error message do you get and which commands exactly don't work? Even if you are a beginner, you should know that we need food here, otherwise the help won't work.

 cat resolv.conf
search lan
nameserver 8.8.8.8

I have tailscale installed on 4 of my other nodes, but I have 1 node that doesn't have tailscale yet and with the same resolv.conf and I have no problems with it
ping any internal or external address are always 100% packet loss
Try to ping this node and I get 100% packet loss
Web GUI is accessible and works fine
I can ssh into or out of the faulty node just fine, I was able to join the cluster, was slow in joining but it joined and is accessible through the cluster
I look at connected devices on my router and it's not on the list, I look at connected devices on my switch and it's not there, but if I run nmap from the faulty node it picks up every single device on my network and if I run nmap 192.168.0.85 nmap will find and scan this node just fine?

No one else? I know it's the holiday season and wish you all blessings and a prosperous New year.If I am slow to respond it's only because of the holidays

cat resolv.conf
search lan
nameserver 8.8.8.8

Remove the line "search lan", unless you actually have this domain running functionally on your network.

What error message do you get and which commands exactly don't work? Even if you are a beginner, you should know that we need food here, otherwise the help won't work.

Please read again carefully my quote. You've repeatedly said that X doesn't work and Y doesn't work, but you're unable to attach a log excerpt or take a screenshot. It's hard to understand what you've built if you don't give out any information or error messages.

I know it's the holiday season

No, not in Germany - that's where I live. So maybe it's just a matter of the time zone you're in. For me it's currently 8:10 p.m.

What do you see in the browser when you access https://192.168.0.85:8006 ?

To anyone that tried to make sense of my problem, I appreciate tour time. After a number of HOURS i figured my problem out. It was an issue with my router. I had previously bound the mac and ip address of this node, to an entirely different machine. Once I cleared it out all problems were resolved.
