r/TPLink_Omada

But seriously, has anyone heard anything about release date, pricing, or more specs? It’s been almost two months since the announcement already.

I have 5 TP-Link Omada EAP770 and a TP-Link Omada OC220 controller. For some reason, all MacBook devices randomly lose internet over Wi-Fi and then reconnect a few seconds later. The controller doesn’t show any drops, and clients still appear healthy at around -50 to -68 dBm.

I’ve already disabled 6 GHz and WPA3, which helped a lot, but the issue still happens multiple times daily. Around 15 laptops are affected, but not all at the same time, it seems completely random. 2.4 and 5ghz channel show clear and in the green. Speeds to the devices are around 500-700/each via speed test.

I’ve already reached out to support without much luck, so I’m hoping someone in the Omada community has run into this and found a fix.

Devices are MacBook Pro / air all up to date and within a 1 year of age. Google meeting troubleshooting shows small spikes constantly on the MacBook and flat line on my windows laptop.

TPLink, when is the gateway coming with just 2.5G ports for WAN & LAN? If I'm ever going to purchase a new gateway I'd like to also be a step up from what I have now. Would really like to see the Integrated Gateway be update as such. Otherwise, I stay on my Dell PC running pfsense.

We finally got our first contract to be the monopoly ISP for a small apartment complex, 52 units.

We are going to implement Omada wireless APs throughout the property. I attended a webinar of theirs last year where they talked about PPSK being the solution for this. A single SSID across the entire property and each tenant has their own unique password. If anyone has implemented this, I’ve got a few questions on how you did it and how successful it has been.

-The management company is going to offer three speed tiers. My understanding is that Omada can throttle the bandwidth based on PPSK. So I was thinking about programming each unit with 3 PPSKs and giving that entire list to the apartment manager. Depending on which speed the tenant chooses, the apartment manager will give the appropriate password to the tenant. Is this a sound strategy? I’m trying to eliminate my own management as much as possible.

-On the topic of speed throttling, If the tenant purchases a 100mb cheap Internet plan and I programmed that in Omada. Is each device connected to their PPSK going to get 100mb, or is the system smart enough to combine all of the devices using that same password and throttle all of them down to 100mb?

-For those of you that have implemented this approach for apartments, how successful has it been? We are charging the landlord, a pretty low price and allowing them to sell the Internet service to their tenants as part of the rent that the tenant pays. With this model, we are trying to eliminate Management on a daily basis of the network and let the management company do collections and and user support as much as possible. Have there been any issues or pitfalls with the system that you guys have run into?

ok....wondering if anyone is interested in this docker container I'm building up to provide additional context and identity of devices on a network. It is limited now to a single subnet, due to using broadcast/multicast interception. Keen for feedback here...initial goal was to determine what is on the network and provide consistant naming of devices back into the Omada Controller.

It would be super handy if TP-Link updated their v6 API to allow updating all elements of clients on the network. I'd love to see TP-Link get a bit smarter about understanding clients on the network as there is a lot that can be done with DHCP fingerprinting, MDNS inspection etc.

Hi everyone, so assume I'm an idiot in networking. Can someone tell me if this will work, or if there is a better way of doing this.

I have two different lines of internet. 1 2gig internet, and 1 1gig internet.

I want to run both modems INTO a TP-Link ER707-M2 to have a failover setup.

I'm trying to figure out if one of these two options will work.
______________________________________________________

I would like to run the 2gb into a 2.5gb port, and the 1gb in a 1gb port. I want to plug my primary pc directly into the other 2.5gb port (does this matter) to get the full use of speeds on the 707. I would run a 1gb 8 port switch and an eero through the 1gb ports as well, but then i assume i would be bottlenecking my eero.

My other idea is to connect the 2gb to the 2.5, the eero to the other 2.5, my primary pc to the eero and then everything else including the 1gb internet and switch to the 707.

_______________________________________________________

You can also say I'm completely wrong, but I would greatly appreciate the help either way!

TIA!

The first device (MAC ending in EA) is an SG2008P switch. The other device (MAC ending in 6B) is an SG2428P switch. They're connected via the ports that keep being blocked (port 8 on the small switch, port 11 on the big switch).

The other ports referenced (port 1 on the small switch and 15 on the big one) are both connected to EAP-225 and 245 access points, running over POE.

Any idea why it'd be saying there's loops detected? There are no physical ethernet loops. I have rebooted the whole system and it keeps coming back. But despite all the messages in the logs, everything is working normally. The access points work, every device on the network, wired or wireless, has connectivity.

I've finished my weekend project of replacing my old USG-3P with an ER707-M2 and wanted to document it.

I have a VM running Technitium DNS server (was a Pi Hole / Adguard Home server) that performs ad blocking and also resolves a local domain.

I wanted the internet DNS to still resolve if my local server was offline for one reason or another. This would be a common scenario for businesses that may only have a single active directory domain controller.

I also wanted IPv6 to use my local DNS server instead of potentially bypassing it. This again also affects businesses that might want IPv6 internet/WAN support but need to ensure only their AD server is handed out for DNS.

I found using SLAAC + RDNSS only handed out the DNS servers in my list while stateless DHCP added the ISP servers in addition to my defined DNS which could lead to unintentional bypassing of my local DNS.

These are the settings that I found worked best for my network and gave me the redundancy I was looking for.

WAN Settings

My ISP (Rogers/Shaw in Canada) uses DHCP and SLAAC/DHCPv6 for IPv6. My modem is also in bridge mode.

For IPv6 Support I set:

Connection Type: Dynamic IP (SLAAC/DHCPv6)

Get IPv6 Address: Automatically

Prefix Delegation: Enable

Prefix Delegation Size: 64

DNS: Get from ISP Dynamically

---

LAN Settings (under Advanced Settings)

DNS Servers: Manual

First DNS points to my local DNS server. e.g. 192.168.0.10

Second DNS points to my Omada gateway. e.g. 192.168.0.1

DNS Servers: Auto -- does work too but then your DNS server will only see your gateway as a client assuming you configure DNS proxy below.

Configure IPv6

IPv6 Interface Type: SLAAC + RDNSS

Prefix: Get from Prefix Delegation

IPv6 PD Interface: WAN

IPv6 Prefix ID: 0

DNS Server: Manual

First DNS points to the link local of my DNS server. e.g. fe80::92aa:d324:8008:1355

Second DNS blank.

DNS proxy on the gateway doesn't support IPv6 and having redundant DNS servers for IPv6 doesn't matter to me as all my devices will be IPv4 only or dual-stack.

---

Device Config > DNS > DNS Proxy

DNS Proxy: Enabled

First DNS points to my local DNS server. e.g. 192.168.0.10

Second DNS points to Cloudflare or Google. e.g. 1.1.1.1

After updating my Omada Gateway I also setup LAN DNS to mirror the local domains for the added redundancy.

In a business environment you can use the LAN DNS forwarding option to forward your active directory domain to your AD server.

Esta pregunta puede parecer extraña, pero más de una persona ha configurado esta configuración en dispositivos EAP: conectar un router Wi-Fi interior al puerto LAN de un EAP Outdoor.

Dicho esto, ¿alguien sabe si es posible asignar una VLAN a ese puerto LAN?

Sé que los SSID pueden tener sus propias VLANs, pero ¿qué pasa con el puerto LAN?

Tengo el SSID configurado en VLAN 100, pero quería usar ese puerto LAN con VLAN 50. Esto me permitiría controlar y monitorizar los dispositivos conectados, tanto internamente como externamente. El router interno es de otra marca.

My ISP just upgraded me to a 10Gbps plan, but I’m still running an ER707-M2. Do you guys think it’s worth upgrading to an ER8411? All my setup is Omada...

My setup:

• ER707-M2
• TL-SG3210XHP-M2 (with 2 SFP+ ports)
• SG2218P
• 2x EAP723 APs
• OC200

i have been using omada ecosystem for 2 years now and been quite happy with the performance so i decided to add another AP (EAP683UR US v1.0) with FW 1.3.1. The issues that im facing is the random heartbeat missed, disconnect and readopt every 2-3 hours. Thought it was the cat6 Ethernet cable issue so i swap with EAP653 v1, everything works fine. so it shouldnt be the cat6 cable issue. Distance from the switch (SG2218p) to AP(EAP683UR) is just 20 meters away.

Appreciate if anyone ever face the similar issue and able to solved it, please guide me throught it.

I am hosting the omada controller software using a proxmox LXC container.
I have an SG2218 switch and an EAP670 ap. When i try to adopt the devices on a different VLAN i cannot adopt nor find it.
I am able to access the omada controller on another VLAN.
Any suggestions?
Please let me know if i did not provide enough info

I recently had a TP Link employee comment to my boss that I should not be running an Omada Controller in a Docker container.

I am feeling pretty bad about this.

Has anyone else been told this by TP Link Omada?

I have:

TP-Link EAP683 UR | Omada WiFi 6 AX6000 Wireless 2.5G Ceiling Mount Access Point

I would like to connect a device using WPS to it.

Can this access point do WPS? I don’t see a button for it on the device.

Spinning in circles

Been having my internet randomly drop. Finally nailed it down to some issue between the ISP and the WAN. My internet randomly drops .

The only way I can go back on is to unplug the modem for 30-60 seconds with the power disconnected from the router. Once modem fully boots, I can power the router back up.

-All firmware is up to date.

-WAN is set to DHCP

-Replaced my 602 router with the 707-m2, replaced the xfinity router from the X7 to the X8 and it is still an issue.

-Xfinity r says it is always online. Just rebooting the xfinity device does not fix it. I have to follow the steps above.

Never can find much in the logs, but maybe I don't know where to look.

Latest alert is failed to obtain the IP address for WAN1 because no response from the server.

I have 3 wifi networks that have been running for a year or so. Regular network for the adults. A network for the kids. This lets me filter our unwanted sites via EAP Rules. Finally an IOT network for my home automation stuff.

Kids come to me asking why the internet is not working. I'm watching a streaming show on HTPC and browsing on my phone. The internet is clearly working. I check the tablet, the kid wifi is gone. I check my phones wifi. The regular and IOT networks are visible but the kid one is no where to be found. I'm at a loss. No single failure that I can think of would nerf a single wifi network out of 3. In the controller the networks can't even be shut off. Either the network is there or it's not.

A reboot of the access points seems to have solved the issue.

Is there something else for me to check or do? How does something like that happen?

My setup:

1. Software controller 6.2.10.17.
2. ER707-M2 router.
3. SG2428P switch.
4. EAP650 access point quantity 2.

Everything is up tondate on firmware.

I just added an ES208GP and EAP650 to my existing network - ethernet from my existing router (Linksys WRT1900AC) to the switch, and ethernet/PoE from the switch to the AP. I'm using a software controller running as a Home Assistant add-on.

I configured two SSIDs on the EAP650 with the same name and password as what I have configured on the Linksys router, but when my phone connects to the new router, I'm not able to access my Home Assistant server. As soon as it connects to the router again, HA connects immediately.

One other thing I can think of that's possibly worth mentioning - I don't have any VLANs set up on the router, just separate 2.5GHz and 5GHz SSIDs.

I'm guessing I need to do something to allow communication between devices connecting to the router and those connecting to the AP, but I'm not really sure what to check and hoping someone can help point me in the right direction.

I have an EAP245(EU) v1.0. I just installed omada controller SW (in Windows, version 6.2.10.17) but it says this device is not compatible with your current controller. How to fix this?
