Hellow there. 

Ive been in trial time of trading hotspot to my area.  The project initialized successful and well working.  The challenge is that am using omada software controller on my laptop and using s single EAP for my area. 

 

AM planing to extend the network to a whole street. 

The challenge am facing is on how to connect multiple EAP devices to a single controller given that all the EAPs will be on different network using different router as internet source

 

Should i have to but new laptop for controller utility on each point i place EAPs or theres a way for controller to adopt EAPs from different networks not necessary to be connect on the same network and using internet from a same (ISP) router?

If you're only going to use wifi, look at Cloud Essentials.

It has many of the features of Omada but is very limited. and its for free.

  @MR.S 

LEt me put this short 

Is it possible to adopt EAP that is not connected to omada by ethernet (LAN) OR by wifi.  Its far away distance of about 10 km. 

 

Meaning i have three EAPs one here (home) and another on other district (office) and another at city center Hotel.  These EAPs are always connected to internet via LAN from different ISPs,  And theres no way to connected them all on one router to adopt them. 

 

My question is

Is it possible to adopt these all EAPs by a single Omada controller and both use Portal Authentication via Voucher system??
