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.

mikrotik has nothing to do with your iphone problem. so leave it as your friend recommended you.
if you need another dns, you can set it on the lan interface of the ER707-M2, I use 1.1.1.2 and 1.0.0.2, works well

try and disable 802.11r on SSID also turn off 6Ghz
The EAP650 connected to the TL-SG2210MP probably has a fault with the cable, check that it is connected correctly, it only supplies power to the access point.
also check that the switch port is not disabled. then it will only provide power but no data.

Seems like protocol 802.11r is disabled (shadowed) since 6GHz is on and WPA3 required by itself.
If I turn off 6 GHz Idk why, but one of AP, between EAP650 outdoor and EAP225 outdoor losses signal from (-88 dBm) to (-91 dBm) which is strange because that should not be correlated.
Between switch and EAP650 I'll have to physically change the ports, I tried to reboot that port remotely but nothing changed.

ok try with WPA2-PSK / AES only and not enable 802.11r, disable 6Ghz non of your device use that,

ok, thank you for time.
I also wonder, since MikroTik LTE 18 kit is powered by PoE, can I plug this in to switch so I can skip the oem powet adapter, and then ER707-M2 I could plug in to port #2.
Do you think this gonna work?
In ER707 I plugged in to port #1 MikroTik and TL-SG2210MP to port #2 but in settings its shows different ports.

no I don't think you should do that, microtik is your internet router or what? if you connect it to a LAN, there may be problems.
if you are only going to have power from the switch, you can disable the switch port and only give it power, then in theory it should work.

MikroTik LTE 18 kit is a wireless link I see, no leave it as it is and you will avoid more problems.
