I must add that i have tried with and without UPnP enabled on the router, but still not visible. The minidlna server is not detected by the TV when the tv is connected using utp lan cable
That's not a bug, that's the expected behavior as DLNA relies on broadcasts for discoveries.
You can solve this by setting up your secondary access point in bridge mode instead of router.
This shall solve your problem: http://www.hanselman.com/blog/ConfiguringTwoWirelessRoutersWithOneSSIDNetworkNameAtHomeForFreeRoaming.aspx
Interesting that AllShare, Servio, and a whole bunch of other servers work in the exact SAME configuration implementing DLNA protocol via just one and same router (all combination work, meaning server on utp, tv on utp, server on wifi, tv on wifi, etc). None of these have ever recommended me to instal a bunch of other routers to solve "my" problem. So this is not "expected" behavior for dlna protocol actually. This answer is embarasing. The only server that didn't work is this minidlna. I've installed it for it's simplicity. Considering to move to xbmc or anything else that won't require two routers to solve "my" problem.
So, let us understand: "You" have AllShare, Servio and a whole bunch of other servers working in the SAME configuration, yet "you" insist in take our time to solve "your" very own network problem?
Here's the solution: Use Allshare, Servio and the whole bunch of other servers and please complain here no more. We've already exceeded our whiny user count for 2016.
Also, whenever you're posting a problem, do provide "your" configuration setup, posting stuff like "My minidlna is not working, you must fix it!" helps very little, dear quoty user.
@OP - Lack of details will result in generic answers or none at all.
My guess is you are using wireless bridging and your router is not routing the multicast traffic over the bridge. Run a packet analyzer on your network to find out what is happening on your network and with the SSDP traffic.
