You convinced me to buy TP-Link instead of Unify XD. Thanks for the video. I hope Cisco will open up to normal household consumers with Meraki. They cost a lot. Omada is a real competitor with Unify that had reasonable pricing. But I see TP-Link is gaing traction in the market. Hope they market this stuff more and always improve. The household and small business market really will enjoy with these experiences. Thanks again!

@51TomasLopez50 Год назад

Total noob here, but i had a problem with setting up a portal for my guest network with this setup followed step by step. If you have your guest network with a "manual" VLAN and you use the ACL to block all from your guest vlan to your main lan, the portal will not show up as the AP should be able to reach your controller in your main lan. This is when the "Guest Network" check mark comes in handy. This allows your guest network to reach your controller BUT denies all IPs to access any config on your main lan. Hope this helps somebody!

@patricknelson Год назад

22:03 - Presumably that still worked because their UI mislabels that as "URLs" when in reality that's just a DNS block. And since you had just visited the site, the DNS was cached locally for a little bit of time. But after a little while, that'll go away. But part of why it's a bad idea to call it URLs (I mean, this *is* "prosumer") is because it would block all types of traffic by domain, not just web but SSH, FTP and other goodies.

The Poe switch seems pretty appealing but I already have a good router I have openwrt on. is it pointless to use the controller with only the switch. I also have vlans set up on my router I just need a managed switch. Would the Omada switch still be a good option?

@goblinphreak2132 Год назад

does it do packet sniffing? IDS/IPS? how is the QoS? the one reason I bought a dream machine pro was the insane quality QoS it has. I had an asus gaming router before, and with 3 power users I would end up getting a F rating for buffer bloat. turning on QoS on the ASUS moved that score to a D. getting the dream machine pro with the initial setting of QoS OFF, I got a B rating, and then turning it on it went to an A+ rating. which is great. basically 0 buffer bloat now. which was a huge point for me in gaming.

Wondering about going into the setup on Omada for meshing 2 access points on the same SSID, maybe one for 2.4 and another for 5ghz network? Also, pros and cons of hooking up “dumb” (unmanaged) switches downstream of the smart switch, and how we might want to configure those? Thanks for the videos on Omada, I’m going with a new Omada setup soon.

@DoCLov Год назад

You should get Omada AP which support seamless roaming. Don’t go for older or cheaper ap. it works pretty well on the same ssid. At least with ,y iPhone. You can also see in the logs when roaming happens.running dumb switches downstream work. Omada just treats all devices like connected to the same port on the smart switch. Is it painless - no, there a few bugs I discovered in my hacks setup. I also had to introduce weekly reboot of all devices. Previously after 70 days of up time it might decide to re provision a gatway in the middle of the day and l would loose a connection during a video call. But after weekly reboot it hasn’t happen since.

I love your content. I had a question is there any video on setting up TP-Link EAP multiple mash access points together to work as one and use one central access point ACL to work across all Access points throughout the home? also don't have to sign extra VLAN and I can work off that one central access point VLAN. I hope this question makes sense

@z8ty 11 месяцев назад

I tried to figure out what you are asking, but fell short. Perhaps rephrase the question. The mesh option works great. Your ACL can be assigned the port to which you have your wired AP connected. Do you have something specific in mind for the ACL?

You can indeed use a standard ISP router if you wish, however you will lose a lot of the functionality that was mentioned in the video as it requires the Omada router. Things like VLANs, bandwidth controls, gateway ACLs etc wont be available. However if you are just after basic wireless and a nice controller interface to manage it, then it will work for you!

For some reason I've never had any luck with the auto backup recognizing any USB drive that I plugged in. I've tried various formats, but it just never sees the USB drive. So I just end up doing FTP, which I'd rather not...but it works fine. I just had to open it up on my Synology. Anyone had any luck with USB drives? Or have a suggestion on format ? Also, SOLID video sir. I like the breakdown and I've been using the Omada setup for a bit, but still learned several things here, so thank you kindly. I have a decent Omada setup (3 APs, ER605 FW, one 16 port managed switch, on 8 port managed switch...and the OC200 SDN) and it works well. One dig I have at TP-Link... I wish their log screen for event dropped pings would provide more information. I just end up marking them all as archived. I mean, I run various docker images and the "detected large ping attack and dropped xx packets" might very well just be normal. BUT... I have now way to tell and it provides zero value other than...it occurred.

@brucebondi6104 Год назад

Hi, I think you have done an amazing job explaining the programming of the GUI and all the offerings that Omanda has with their new platform. I have installed several systems already. The problem is, No one tells us how to separate the devices to the V-lans that you teach us how to set up. If I want to put all my IOT devices in a V-lan, I’m clueless. It seems it would be easy for a hard wired device, but not so easy with wireless.. Please advise. BRB

@angrynerd2103 Год назад

Iv been looking into that issue a lot myself recently and it seems for wifi vlan options boil down to two ways. Either mutiple ssids or a radius server and wpa enterprise. The multiple ssids are probably easier to setup but I dont particularly like having an ssid like "name-iot".

@z8ty 11 месяцев назад

I just did an install and setup 6 vlans including 2 IoT vlans. Setup wired networks for each of your wireless networks (this will give you the DHCP that you will need) and give them each the desired vlan #. I suggest that you use the vlan # as the 3rd octet in the DHCP settings. Then setup a wireless network for each wired network you created. For example: Staff, Guest and IoT. At this point you should have 3 wired network with vlans and DHCP and 3 wireless networks with the same vlans. All of your wired networks should be trunking down the appropriate port from your router to your switch. Connect your APs to the switch and they will broadcast the SSIDs of your wireless networks. When you connect to a particular one, check your IP address. It will be from the range you set for your network. And if you setup the 3 octet to be the vlan number you will have confirmation that it is working. Now you have to set up an ACL to keep your IoT vlan from being able to access your main network. You may want to make sure your ACL allows your main (Staff as the example) network to access your IoT network so you can reach your IoT devices without having to join the IoT wireless network. There are other videos out there that probably will be easier to understand than my diatribe above. Best wishes.

@Anonymous-lr6jt Год назад

I have a question regarding double NAT when using the TL-R605 router. I plan to use a similar setup as your friend's in the video titled, "Home Network Upgrade - TP-Link Omada Setup". Though I have two ISPs and would be connecting them to the router. A thing to note is, both ISP, have provided me with their OEM routers (similar to the one in the video, i.e. a modem, router, and access point combo) and I can't get rid of them or bypass them. Though I can disable their DHCP server or turn on their DMZ feature in both routers. I cannot find a solution to get rid of the double NAT problem I will face when playing online video games. Any tips or suggestions?

@RaidOwl Год назад

Putting the R605 in the DMZ should avoid any real firewall conflicts from your ISP. It’s not quite “passthrough” mode but it should be fine.

Hey @Raid Owl, any update on whether we can access a PIA like VPN service and use it as a separate Wan interface?

@maichaelthejoe8213 Год назад

Based on the video, I wonder if the way to do this could be to create a seperate SSID network as a vlan, and then only list this as the interface for the VPN (PIA, NordVpn). So for any device you want in your home to use this vpn connection, switch to this different Wifi network. Not a great option for wired devices though

I have and use a similar setup. I have the OC300 controller and the MP version of the switch. I just installed (July 2023) a system like this one for a building contractor that has a tenant in his building. He wanted to have separate networks from the tenant, but only use one ISP. The system is working great. He and the tenant have 3 VLANS each. No access to the other's network. As for a large enterprise environment, you have to be careful of the number of devices. The OC200 can handle 100 devices and the OC300 can handle 500 devices. Enterprise means different things to different people. For me it means a full time Cisco Certified network staff and a very large budget. I have co-workers that went with Ubiquiti and of the 3 one is our Network Architect and he sold it all. He did not like the interface and did not like the cost. 1 other gave it up and went with his own hybrid system. He also did not like the cost and the complexity.
