Background:

 

This post provides a configuration guide on the firmware roll-back function on the Omada router. 

 

This Article Applies to:

 

  • TP-Link Omada routers.
  • The router's firmware is required to be the one that adapts to V5.15.20.X or above. 

 

Configuration Steps:

 

(Recommend you remove the new features if you have configured them on the router before you proceed with the roll-back while it is still adopted. Or consider putting the device in standalone mode and rolling back, and then adopt it again.)

 

1. Open the SSH on your controller. 

 

 

2. Configure as below.

 

 

3. Open CMD and input the syntax: 

ssh username@gateway_ip

The password is the one you use to adopt. 

 

 

4. Type en

Type roll-back

Press Y

 

 

5. The firmware roll-back will start and reboot. Please DO NOT disconnect power during the roll-back or firmware upgrade.

Any firmware-related process should not experience a power cut, which may cause irreversible damage to the device. 

 

Note:

1. The username and password are the ones you used to adopt the devices. You can find it at Settings > Site Settings > Device Account.

 

 

2. Your firmware has to be the one that adapts to the V5.15.X.Y. If it is not, this option is not available.

  @Clive_A 

say, if rolling back, using a controller, putting it in stand alone, then readopting, will reload the settings from the controller correct ?? 

so not starting from scratch ??

Yes. As you said, settings are stored on the controller. The device, when you forget it from the controller, that'll reset it. And when you adopt it, it will also reset the router and sync the settings from the controller.
