The first thing I would be doing is to look at the routers's Web GUI
to check what it thinks is going on and what is connected to where.
 
 

The DHCP range is limited to 192.168.1.nnn, with no distinction between
wired and wireless connections. There's clearly bridging from wirless to
wired devices such as the printer, which works and can be pinged.
 
Maybe there's a firewall between wireless clients. I've certainly not needed
such connections much. I'll poke around on the Web to see if there are any
references to Guest Mode online. The internal help pages are close to useless,
and the configuration menus are worse.
 

Router software does sometimes have bugs.  I have a TP-link router
that has a symptom a bit like yours, I can't remember the exact
details (it's relegated to being an access point now) but I do
remember that it was something about the firewall treating WiFi
connections differently from wired ones.

Can you temporarily connect the Pi2 using a wired connection and see
if it then works as expected?
