I don't know if its the new router Firmware (ER707-M2 -> 1.2.3) or a controller issue (running on Linux).
After a reboot of the whole system, the DHCP reservation list is not working. All my devices are getting "fresh" IPs.
EDIT: I think i found my selfmade issue. My DHCP range includes the range in which the fixed IPs from the DHCP reservation list are located. After resetting the range, the DHCP gave my clients the entered fixed IPs. Hm... Is that intended that i cant reserve an IP that is a DHCP range?

@Shoresy I am using all Omada equipment in my case and have the same problem. Nobody has replied from Tp-link yet with any kind of resolution to this and more and more people are running in to it... hopefully they address this soon.

@OrangeStreet I know Cloud access works from 5.15.6.4 because I had it working on a new Omada Controller (Windows) until I restored from backup and rebooted the Windows PC after applying some Windows updates, then Cloud access went to a "Disconnected" state with the slider grayed out and I haven't been able to force it on anywhere. It prevents the Controller from showing up within the Omada mobile app as well. Hope it's fixed asap.
