Can't ping esp that's connected to another esp ap

Hi all, i ran into a problem with a project I'm working on.

I have two adafruit huzzah feathers, and i have one that's unmodified fresh out of the box broadcasting its default ssid, and another that's programmed (using the arduino ide) to connect to the fresh module. However, when it connects and receives an ip address and my laptop is connected to the same module, I'm unable to ping the esp. I guess my question is, is there some setting that has to be enabled for basic WiFi routing to work with the default module? I thought it would behave as a typical access point out of the box? What am i missing, or is this just not the way the esp works?

Thank you for any insights you can provide.

When the ESP is running as an AP, clients are isolated from each other; this is a limitation on the hardware.
