Issue Description/Phenomenon
We have recently received feedback regarding some abnormal behaviors of their EAP653 v1 after upgrading its firmware 1.0.9 Build 20230814. You may find the EAP stops functioning properly after a few days of operation, and the issue may manifest in the following ways:
-
There might be massive packet loss.
-
EAP devices becoming unreachable or unmanageable.

In the aforementioned situations, a simple reboot resolves the issue temporarily, but it tends to reoccur.
Available Solutions
These abnormal behaviors will be corrected or optimized in the subsequent firmware very soon.
Upon waiting for the new firmware to correct these issues, you may upgrade the following Beta firmware as a workaround.

a lot of devices won't connect to ssd or don't receive an IP
May I know whether these devices are all 2.4G clients?
If so, the PMF feature was supported since Omada Controller v5.7, which requires to upgrade the EAP device firmware to take effect. The previous firmware is not adapted to controller 5.7, that is, the previous firmware doesn't support the PMF feature, thus the PMF configuration with "Mandatory" won't affect the connection of non-PMF-capable clients.
While the EAP650 new firmware is adapted to controller 5.9, which supports the PMF feature, so changing PMF from "Mandatory" to "Capable" can fix the issue. If your clients still has connection issue with the "Capable" option, you may disable PMF for the network.
