Details - I have two devices that show the same problem - both TP-Link, but different models.
The problem is that the devices/clients connected to any of the wlans are always isolated no matter what the config "isolate clients" is set to.
These devices cannot ping and see each other but they can be pinged and they can ping devices from/to devices in lan.

Further more the generated **/var/run/hostapd-phy0.conf** and **/var/run/hostapd-phy1.conf**
always have the //**ap_isolate=1**//

The tested devices are:

root at OpenWrt:~# ubus call system board
{
        "kernel": "4.14.180",
        "hostname": "OpenWrt",
        "system": "Qualcomm Atheros QCA9558 ver 1 rev 0",
        "model": "TP-Link Archer C7 v2",
        "board_name": "tplink,archer-c7-v2",
        "release": {

                "target": "ath79/generic",
                "description": "OpenWrt 19.07.3 r11063-85e04e9f46"
        }
}



root at OpenWrt:~# ubus call system board
{
        "kernel": "4.14.180",
        "hostname": "OpenWrt",
        "system": "Atheros AR9344 rev 2",
        "model": "TP-Link TL-WDR4300 v1",
        "board_name": "tplink,tl-wdr4300-v1",
        "release": {
                "distribution": "OpenWrt",

        }
}


No packages have been updated manually on both devices.
Both devices has defaults sets coming with the default factory OpenWrt 19.07.3 image.
Both devices were set for their //Network -> Wireless -> wlan0 (and wlan1) -> Interface configuration -> Advanced settings -> Isolate clients// **//UNCHECKED//**

Here is the config of one of the devices (///etc/config/wireless//) and the respective generated ///var/run/hostapd-phy0.conf//

config wifi-device 'radio0'
	option type 'mac80211'
	option hwmode '11g'
	option path 'platform/ahb/18100000.wmac'
	option channel 'auto'
	option country 'BG'
	option htmode 'HT20'

config wifi-iface 'default_radio0'
	option device 'radio0'
	option network 'lan'
	option mode 'ap'
	option key 'XXXXXX'
	option ssid 'YYYYYYYY'
	option encryption 'psk2'


Even when option isolate '0' is added manually using uci not luci, and restarting the device the respective hostapd-phy0.conf remains with **ap_isolate=1**

driver=nl80211
logger_syslog=127
logger_syslog_level=2
logger_stdout=127
logger_stdout_level=2
country_code=BG
ieee80211d=1
hw_mode=g

ieee80211n=1

ht_capab=[LDPC][SHORT-GI-20][SHORT-GI-40][TX-STBC][RX-STBC1][DSSS_CCK-40]

interface=wlan0
ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd
ap_isolate=1
bss_load_update_period=60
chan_util_avg_period=600
disassoc_low_ack=1
preamble=1
wmm_enabled=1
ignore_broadcast_ssid=0
uapsd_advertisement_enabled=1
utf8_ssid=1
multi_ap=0
wpa_passphrase=XXXXXX
auth_algs=1
wpa=2
wpa_pairwise=CCMP
ssid=YYYYYYYY
bridge=br-lan
wpa_disable_eapol_key_retries=0
wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
okc=0
disable_pmksa_caching=1
bssid=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx


My guess is that hostapd/wpad doesn't set properly the ap_isolate according to the config.

Please let me know if you need further info.

Thanks
