How often does the Arduino beacon for OTA MDNS?

I have switched to an ASUS RT-AX88U router (running Merlin). I no longer receive the (port5353) MDNS broadcasts from almost any of my 9 ESP8266s.

Same type of messages works from my Android phone when it is connected to my main wifi (not any guest network, even if access to local network works). And same type of messages works from my TV (wired lan).

It seems to me that the ESP sends them every 120s. But do they usually work?
Can there be a setting in my router that disables these to my PC?

Maybe you have 'Station isolation' (or something similar) option set on your WiFi router?

Thanks!

"Set AP Isolated" was not enabled. Before posting this answer I enabled "Enable IGMP Snooping", but it did not help. There are many settings and I do not understand all of them.
