Hi @d0ugmac1 

Thanks for your valued reply.

 

@dunxd 

Please try to set the SSID without 6GHz, change the WPA mode to WPA/WAP2-PSK not includes WPA3 so that the PMF can be disabled. The 3.2.2 of EAP235-Wall has added the support of PMF.

  @Hank21 I have done as you suggested.

 

Disabled 6 MHz on the SSID

Set the authentication to WPA2-PSK/AES

This switches PMF to disabled.

 

Then upgraded the EAP235-wall to 3.2.2

Then rebooted the EAP234-wall.

 

This has not made any improvement - the web is unusable for clients on 3.2.2.

  @dunxd -

Yes had the same experience.

 

Setup:

Omada Controller Version: 5.13.22

Internet Connection: 1 Gbit/s down/ 280 Mbit/s up.

  • All my EAP 235 are : EAP235-Wall(EU) v1.0
  • 3 Outdoor AP's EAP225-Outdoor(EU) v1.0 powered via POE from 3 of these EAP 235
  • all EAP's powered through POE from a TL-SG2428P v1.0 (Firmware 1.1.10)
  • Flat Network, No VLAN, so no extra settings (gave up on it as it broke too often)

 

 

Rolling Upgrade via Omada Controller - then hell broke loose.

 

Was crazy to "debug":

 

     Oookla Speedtest showed "full speed",

      Business VPN worked flawlessly

      but Netflix, Amazon Prime, MagentaTV all failed

      Not even Amazon Website was "reachable"

 

The issue was only on "WIFI" (independent of 2.4 or 5 Ghz)

 

Clients on EAP235 (Firmware 3.2.2) affected, clients on Outdoor 225 (Firmware 5.1.6) unaffected.

Speedtest on some clients (all with full signal: 866 on both TX/RX, SNR > 50 dB) showed that "upload" is affected: Speedtest download > 500 MBit/s whilst upload <10MBit/s

Connecting the same clients via Ethernet : no issues.

 

Rolling back to 3.1.1 fixed the WIFI issues (same client as above : 594Mbit/s down / 263Mbit/s up)

 

hope that helps
 

 

Hi @js39a 

May I confirm whether you have tried to disable the 6GHz, set the WPA mode not contains WPA3 and disable the PMF? 

If rather, I've created a support ticket via your registered email address, and escalated it to our support engineer to look into the issue. The ticket ID TKID240539216, please check your email box and ensure the support email is well received. Thanks!

@Hank21 I have the same issues as the original poster and others have described in this thread. The slow to almost non-existent internet connection on android devices.

 

Hardware and versions:

1x OC200: firmware 1.29.4 Build 20240304 Rel.54362

                  controller: 5.13.30.20

1x TL-SG2210MP v2.0: 2.0.8 Build 20240115 Rel.72847
1x EAP225(EU) v4.0: 5.1.6 Build 20240313 Rel. 43415
3x EAP235-Wall(EU) v1.0: 3.2.2 Build 20240407 Rel. 70269

 

The EAP225 is working fine, the EAP235's on version 3.2.2 are broken for android (13) devices. My Laptops, IoT devices, e-reader, etc. seem to be working fine with 3.2.2.

 

When reverting to 3.1.99 Build 20221221 Rel. 50693 (beta build) or the stable version before the problematic one, 3.1.0, everything works fine again.

 

* I also noticed a lot of RX errors and retries on the android clients traffic

* The CPU usage went down ~7% after downgrading from 3.2.2 to 3.1.99

 

I am curious to know if you already have a solution which I can test or if I can assist in any way to narrow down the issue.

Hi, I have the exact same issue.

The client works fine when connected via the Ethernet port, but through Wi-Fi it doesn't work. I get the exact same result on the speed test.

I tried resetting, but it doesn't resolve the problem. I tried everything.

If there are any updates, I took them.

Thanks!

@Hank21 I have Windows and Android WiFi clients on my network. All are affected by this issue.

 

Speed tests I have mentioned have been run from a Windows 11 laptop.
