Omada Mesh ecosystem dropping iPhones form WiFi
Omada Mesh ecosystem dropping iPhones form WiFi
I started with a small network with only two EAP225 but with the demand, the network expanded.
As an Internet source, I'm using MikroTik LHG LTE18, before I used Huawei B535 and never had any issue.
The problem is when it comes to roaming between APs.
Devices that do not move around the yard i.e. TP link cameras, printer, laptop, tv works fine.
Even Samsung S22 Ultra can connect to WiFi around the whole property.
But every iP get goofy and cannot connect to Wifi soon as it moves to another AP.
*Another thing that bothers me is EAP650 connected to TL-SG2210MP v3.0 via PoE but instead of setting a LAN connection it connects to EAP225 indoor via 5 GHz and I cannot change it. Switch Port #4 is for EAP650 outdoor, and port #8 is for EAP225 indoor. Why Omada Controller choose to skip the LAN connections? All Cables are CAT5e and CAT6.

After few days of testing, iPhones are still goofing around and cannot connect to WiFi.
Also, after turning off the 6 Ghz network, one of the APs is losing signal. This is a total mess since EAP225 is far behind 6 GHz technology.
I also wiped the network settings as Apple suggests.

yes it seems strange. I don't know what is your problem. here is the setup for one of my kids, they use iphone ipad android and lots of other devices Wifi consists of EAP225-Outdoor and EAP620HD, if there were problems I would have heard it be sure :-)
but I have a suggestion for you to try, try to create an SSID with only 5Ghz enabled.
here is a screenshot of the SSID of one of the kids
maybe @Hank21 have any suggestions?

Hi @Walt_White
Regarding the issue with the EAP650-outdoor, apart from what Mr. S mentioned about it possibly being a cable issue, there is another possibility: there might be a loop in your network. When the switch detects this, it actively blocks the corresponding LAN connection, causing the EAP to attempt to wirelessly connect to the EAP225. I recommend carefully checking the physical connections of the switch to ensure there are no loops. Once you have confirmed this, you can turn off the mesh feature. It's under Site View, Settings>Site>Services>Mesh
