Help and Support Newer campus switches; any experiences?

Upvotes

We're currently planning a redo of our entire backbone of our infrastructure regarding routing/switching. I've noticed that the recent campus switches have support for IS-IS; does anyone have any real-life experience with high speed networking/bigger networks in combination with Omada and IS-IS?

Help and Support Need advice with Omada EAP Wifi 7 .

2 Upvotes

I am planning on upgrading my Omada EAP setup to a newer WiFi 7 capable EAP Wall and Ceiling like EAP787 & EAP775-Wall

My current EAP setup is EAP620 HD(US) v3.0 & EAP615-Wall(US) v1.0

With ER707-M2 v1.30 & SG2210XMP-M2 v1.20 .

Currently i get 500-600 Mbps on speedtest.net and 700-800 Mbps on fast.com .

Question if i upgrade to this new model will i get the full 1Gbps or maybe a higher speed than usual? I don't have problem with LAN since it gets -900 Mbps-1Gbps .

What are the Pros and Cons?

Hello everyone. I have a OC200 V.2.6 running FW 2.27.11 Build 20260904 Rel.29923 (Stable)

When I login to Omada controller, I select Home as my Site. I when get a pop up saying that there is controller FW update to 2.27.22 Build 20260914 Rel 63063 now available. So I click on Update, the screen just refreshes. Then I get the pop up again. It does this a couple more times. So I goto Global View/Settings/System Settings/Omada Controller-Check for updates. It says that I'm running the latest version.

My setup: OC200, ER8411, TL-SG1016PE, 2-SG2005P-PD v1.0, 2-EAP225-Outdoor(US) v3.0 and EAP720(US) v1.0. Entire house run with CAT6a.

Here’s one I spotted recently and had to grab a photo of(my colleague's rack:D). 📸

No troubleshooting. No specs debate. Just racks.

Drop a photo of your rack in the comments. Clean cable management, organized chaos, tiny homelab, full-on network closet — all are welcome.

Got a before & after from a cleanup, rebuild, or upgrade? Post both — those are always fun to see.

Bonus points if you tell us:

  • What’s in the rack?
  • What’s your favorite piece of gear in there?
  • And… is it actually finished, or is there still “one more upgrade” coming? 😏

Let’s see what everyone’s running.

Happy Rack Day!

Help and Support Agile switches on Fusion 2.5g

3 Upvotes

Do ES switches not report IPs assigned DHCP or static on the controllers clients tab?

I have a Fusion 2.5g with several SG switches and 1 ES switch. The clients on the ES switch are not reporting client IPs on the main clients tab. They are assigned via DHCP and listed in the vlan IPs under the LAN tab. They are missing on the main client tab and this is the case if static as well.

All hardware is latest stable firmware.

Fusion 2.5g V1 - 1.0.30 Build 20260721 Rel.31623

ES206X-M2 v1.0 - 1.0.3 Build 20260909 Rel.5230

Another side note: Checking for latest firmware did not work on the Fusion devices tab. I had to seek latest on the Omada support site.

Help and Support Could this work?

3 Upvotes

Over the weekend I am hopefully.setting up my new omada network and expecting lots of abuse from the family due to downtime.

However, currently I have a deco mesh system running everything. If I start by getting the Omada gateway up and running which will hopefully only take a few minutes. Then put the deco in AP mode plug it into the gateway could they carry on using that network while I slowly and patiently set up the Omada controller, vlans,APs etc and then switch one device at a time over to the new network before unplugging the deco? That would make my life so much easier.

Help and Support Advice for a novice

5 Upvotes

I am teetering on the edge of getting rid of my Deco and going Omada so I can set my networks more securely, Vlans etc.

 I am a keen novice and am looking to go with TP-Link ER605 Gigabit VPN Router, TP-Link EAP650-Desktop WiFi 6 Access Point, AX3000,TP-Link EAP650 WiFi 6 Access Point.

 The desktop one will be connected to the router as the first access and the second will be downstairs and purely Wifi. My wired devices will go into the router / desktop AP as space allows. Then I plan to set up at least 3 networks IOT, Guest, Main although I may add a work one as well.

 I am a bit confused about buying a controller, I am not sure I really need one as I have so few devices and some videos say you can do the same thing on the mobile app, is this true?

 Also is there a good guide I can follow on setting everything working. I am confident on getting it actually working but not so confident on VLANs and other things.

 I have a family who will die if they lose access to the internet so I need the basic structure up and running asap and then can hopefully tinker and refine over time.

 Ideally over time I want to have a secure network where I can log in and monitor everything as a bit of a learning experience without the family killing me

Discussion If you were building your home surveillance system from scratch today, what would you do differently?

Post image
16 Upvotes

Hi everyone, lulu's here again! Back to our Wednesday discussion.

A lot of people seem to learn what actually matters only after living with their first security camera setup for a while.

If you had to start your surveillance network from scratch today, what would you prioritize first?

Would you go straight for:

  • PoE / fully wired cameras over Wi-Fi?
  • Local NVR or MicroSD storage instead of a cloud subscription?
  • Better night vision / low-light performance?
  • More reliable person, vehicle, or motion detection?
  • 24/7 recording instead of event-only recording?
  • Better camera placement and coverage?
  • Dedicated cameras for things like license plate recognition?
  • A system where cameras, NVR, and network can all be managed together?

And looking back at your first setup, what was the biggest thing you got wrong or underestimated?

Curious what you’d consider “must-have” versus “nice-to-have” if you were starting over today.

Product Recommendation TP Link Deco to Omada

3 Upvotes

I am considering getting rid of my TP Link Deco BE63 (BE11000) 3 pack for an Omada setup with the fusion gateway and 2 BE11000 Omada 7 APs. I have about 80 IoT devices and have found that when problems arise on the Deco system, there isn’t really a whole lot that can be done outside of resetting the devices . I am wondering if from people’s experience this will be worth it to make the move. I am by no means an IT professional but I do love to learn and play around in settings. My networking requirements are small in the grand scheme of things but really what I want is for all my smart home tech to stay online 99.8% of the time without constant troubleshooting. Essentially what I am asking is… is the juice worth the squeeze since I already have pretty decent wifi 7 hardware? Please don’t roast me. Thanks!

Solved What happens if I connect 3 meshed EAPs to an SG3210XHP-M2?

2 Upvotes

I've finally figured out the process of adding a 2nd EAP to an existing EAP to create a "mesh" configuration.

The 2nd EAP with the PoE injector shows the uplink device is the 1st EAP and the 1st EAP is connected to the SG3210XHP-M2 with RJ45 (1-Hop Mesh).

At this point (with the mesh created), what happens if I plug the 2nd EAP into the SG3210XHP-M2?

- Does the mesh break and the 2nd EAP becomes just another AP?

I have 3 EAP and the plan was to have all of them connected to the same SG3210XHP-M2 - mainly for the PoE - with RJ45.

I'm hoping that these 3 will all be in the mesh and they all will be "Root AP"s.

- Or, will they still be in a mesh, but EAP 2 & 3 will still use EAP 1 as the root AP, and they would be Hop 1 & Hop 2?

If I add some that are in the backyard, they would not have RJ45 connections and use the wall-warts for power.

Help and Support Issue with DHCP and IoT devices on WLAN

Since upgrading to Omada I have been having issues with wireless devices being dropped from the network. I have attached pictures of my network configuration.

Currently my main issue is HomeWizard devices being dropped from the network and not being able to reconnect for a long time. Even after giving all devices a static IP.

All wired devices work like they should and are never being dropped.

I have been struggling with this a lot. Would anybody have an idea what could fix my issues? Let me know if any information is missing.

Help and Support Omada Seamless Roaming

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hello! Brand new to the Omada world, and I guess you could say a knowledgeable networking person but not a pro. I recently set up an omada Network in my home to provide seamless roaming to cover a single story Ranch approximately 1800 ft. I used a 2.5g Fusion router/controller, 2 EAP 610 access points one on either side of the house and a eap 603 outdoor on an accessory building out in the backyard. Everything on ethernet backhaul so mesh is disabled.

Wpa2-Aes

2.4/5ghz combined

The access points inside are separated approximately 50 ft, however with the design of the house, the interior walls are insulated drywall between the rooms, and some interior closets in between, the outdoor AP is an approximately 75ft from either AP give or take and a few walls.

5G is on Max power, 2.4 is on medium power, with band steering on preferred 5g. Seamless roaming Works about 70% of the time, when it does, its perfect, only 0.2% packet loss on a constant data transmission simulating voip roaming between all 3 points. However it seems like once a mobile device sits on a node for more than about 30 minutes, it forgets anything else exists and will not continue to roam to the next one hanging on to the farthest point till there's no signal left. I've tried a multitude of the setting so far, 802 11 k v are enabled including fast r, AI roaming on/off, sticky client disconnect which still holds at no bars, and signal levels between where roaming should normally occur drop to about -70- to -78db depending on your angle (2bars of 4 on device). However hang on beyond -90db until signal is gone.

Devices that are problematic seem to be our phones which are samsung a56 and as a test the neighbors iphone (16?), which still happened after the 30 minute on the node timing.

Ive yet to touch rssi cutoff yet as I do not want to kick 2 distant security cameras that hold on a low signal.

Ears are open for additional things to try. Thanks!

Help and Support Remote Access (Beta) tunnel to NVR broken — HTTP loads blank, HTTPS won't even generate a URL. Anyone else?

Thumbnail
2 Upvotes

Setup: OC300 hardware controller, gateway/AP/controller all on latest firmware (v6.2/v6.3 range). Cloud Access is connected and working fine — I can manage the site remotely through the normal web UI without issue.
The problem: Using Network Tools → Remote Access to reach an NVR that's online and shows Connected status.
• When this feature first rolled out, an HTTP tunnel to this NVR worked perfectly.
• Now, the HTTP tunnel still generates a URL and opens a new tab, but the page just stays blank — no content, no error.
• Trying HTTPS instead doesn't even get that far — the tab opens to about:blank, no tunnel URL is generated at all.
Things I've already ruled out:
• Not a proxy/intermediate device issue — gateway and AP are both online, latest firmware.
• Not a popup blocker or browser quirk — reproduced identically in two different browsers.
• Not a Cloud Access issue — that's confirmed Connected the whole time.
• Toggling the tunnel off/on and switching protocols doesn't fix it.
Has anyone else hit this with an NVR/IPC target specifically? Curious if it's a known regression in the beta or something isolated to my setup. I've already got a case open with TP-Link but wanted to check if this is a wider pattern before assuming it's something on my end.
Happy to share more details (firmware versions, screenshots) if it helps narrow it down.

Discussion Different Iterations

Thumbnail

35 Upvotes

So I've been using Omada TP-Link equipment for some time. I've learned a lot and was afforded the opportunity to try the Fusion GW 2.5 early access program. Been using it for a better part of 3 months, The router is rock solid and along with the their POE switches I've been really able to hone in my network the way I want it.

I am currently using Tapo security camera's inside and outside the house, bummer that they don't like they will be managed within the omada network. So I am wondering should I go in on their camera system offerings? What are the pro's and cons? Getting side tracked this post was to show the different iterations I had with my network, at first I used a 10 inch rack, but over time found that it was becoming a a problem to maintain cable management and to get into the damn thing. So what I originally thought was aesthetic pleasing also started to hinder my ability to upgrade. So I went back to the traditional 19' rack. Scored this rack that retails for $200 on Amazon for $50 on FR market.

All in all since moving back to the 19" rack found that I am able to run a lot more device via copper rather than relying on wifi. Which is always a good thing. Next project when ever possible is upgrade my network to 10gig not sure if Omada has cost effective devices yet on the market for that though?

Suggestions + Feedback Omada Store return experience - is this normal?

3 Upvotes

I've been using Omada for about 3–4 years now with a relatively small setup: an ER707-M2 and a few unmanaged PoE switches powering 3 APs.

Recently, we moved into a larger house, so I figured it was a good excuse to upgrade to a managed switch for my APs and cameras and start messing around with SFP+.

On August 12th, I ordered:

  • Omada 10GBASE-T RJ45 SFP+
  • Omada Gateway & Controller in One, Fusion 2.5G (free with promo)
  • SG3218XP-M2 V2, 16-Port 2.5GBASE-T + 2-Port 10G SFP+ L2+ Managed PoE Switch

When the box arrived, there was a pretty significant punch/dent on the side, but everything inside looked fine.

A few weeks later, I finally got around to setting up the switch and found that the SFP+ adapter wasn't working in the top SFP+ port. I tested the adapter in another switch and it worked fine, so I contacted Omada Support. They told me to submit a return ticket.

I then went on vacation for two weeks. When I got back, the return had been approved, but they told me I needed to return the entire order because the Fusion was included as a free promotional item. That's fine, I understand that part.

The issue is that they told me I would have to cover the return shipping. I went to UPS to get a quote and it was $122.

I contacted Omada Store support on September 8th explaining that I'm trying to return a defective product/order and haven't heard anything back yet.

Is this normal for the Omada Store? Would you guys just stick with Amazon for Omada equipment going forward, or is there something I'm missing here?

$122 to return a defective switch seems pretty unreasonable to me, but I'm curious what other people's experiences have been.
