Can you give us more details on your network?  Router, switch, APs are you using?

 

 

A few EAP650 and EAP610 AP/nodes.

Some cabled, others wirelessly meshed.

Last router I tried was a 4G LTE Router. Music plays fine with only 2 nodes active, but I need all nodes active. So I suspect I need to Lock-to-AP.

The Sonos speakers (about 5) are mainly wifi connected, except 2. I expected the wifi ones to show up in controller due to AP connectivity.

All are only visible in the router client list, none in the controller. I need them visible in the controller to try lock to specific AP/node.

Switch is a non-managed Zyxel. Do I perhaps need an Omada SDN compatible switch for the OC200 to be able to see even AP wifi clients? That doesn't make sense to me if so, as all the nodes/AP devices are connected to the OC200, so I reason I should be able to see those clients regardless of switch behind the controller. Even if some AP are cabled to the switch, they are still showing up as connected in the OC200.

Thank you for taking a look at my situation.

Starting to wonder if maybe I understood all this wrong.

That the OC200 controller I have, is just a part of an eco system where I should perhaps have Omada router/gateway as well behind it which can talk to the controller and then finally show all DHCP clients. As now, the controller just seems by default to pass through DHCP requests to any router behind it. Still odd to me why I can see SOME clients but not others.

Thanks. We have ordered an ER605 V2. If it doesn't solve the clients showing up, I'll add some more nodes to try boost the overall signal. Some are as low as -85 so it could really use a boost anyways. I figured if I find an IGMP snooping setting in the router, I won't necessarily need a managed switch to handle the multicast noise. I'll see how it goes with the router first.

Thanks for the help so far.
