Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.1

I would like to be able to view and terminate DHCP leases.

 

Assigning a static lease to a client is a laborious process (Omada SDN 4.x) and doesn't always take effect, with the client receiving a different IP. It would be helpful to be able to view a list of all DHCP leases and terminate the lease/force the client to reconnect (along with any other client that may be occupying the target IP).

 

As mentioned in other threads, it would also be helpful to assign static leases outside the configured DHCP range.

This has been mentioned a few times and would totally be a welcomed addition!

By DHCP leases, do you mean DHCP Client list? Controller has the Client menu. Is this what you want?

Yes it was a step in the right direction when that came out, however, it doesn't tell you what devices are static / dhcp / reserved without clicking on each one individually.  Its also really slow to go in and check each one individually and make changes as required.

 

Granted its not a thing I have to do that often, but when I do I always think to myself "this could be better designed".   I have a similar feeling to unifi so this isn't an Omada specific thing!

That sounds great! TP-Link should adopt this suggestion and develop it sooner than his competitor, lol.

Having failed to upgrade my R605 router to firmware v1.1.1 due to a clash in assigned IP, it was extremely painful clicking through all the old clients individually trying to find the address which was assigned twice. Making the fixed IP address an optional column to display in the Insight table would be a start to identify and resolve such issues. Currently, all configuration of DHCP is very labourious.

From Fae this morning, sounds promising as I believe v5 is a q4 release

 

The Omada Controller v5 will support showing the reserved IP addresses in a table
