Even after trying all the solutions in this thread and updating to 15.1, two of my apps still couldn't access or ping any devices on my local network, except for the router.
I tried everything suggested, including disabling the firewall, but nothing worked. Today, I took a closer look at the settings and found an option under Privacy & Security > Local Network. When I checked this setting, I realized my apps didn’t have permission to access any devices on the network. I enabled the permission, and now I can successfully ping and SSH to other devices on my network.
Hopefully, this helps someone else avoid the same issue and saves some troubleshooting time!

I confirmed Terminal did NOT have full disk access - no apps had FDA. Prior to upgrading to Sequoia I can confirm Terminal did have full disk access.
I never checked FDA yesterday but I did notice FW was blocking Terminal and I was unable to remove the app while using the GUI. I was able to correct using the cli...
#Apple Firewall Commands
#FIX Terminal
sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --listapps
sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --setglobalstate off
sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --getglobalstate
sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --remove /System/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --add /System/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --unblock /System/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --getglobalstate
sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --setglobalstate on
With FDA, I'm assuming I wouldn't need to correct the odd FW Terminal block.
Hello all, thanks to geoffrey777, I can confirm that these commands fixed my issue. I was not able to ping out from MAC OS Sequoia. All good after I have applied the fix:

Yes, a firewall. The Application Firewall a placebo for consumers. The idea is to give them some buttons to click on in hopes they won't download one of the dozens of scam "security" apps. Turn it off.

Just so you know, this fix will likely break at some point in the future. See this post.
Curious test. With all the new features in Sequoia, why did you choose to test ping? Running some funky networking software perhaps? Or a firewall maybe?

Great tip. Thank you.
I have tried ChatGPT for help, but unsuccessful.
You made my day.
God bless you ..
ping stopped working on macOS sequoia 15.0
