Hello TP-Link team,

 

I would like to suggest adding the option to manually change the icon for connected clients in the Omada Controller.

Currently, TP-Link often assigns incorrect icons (or just shows the three dots). Out of the 50+ devices in my network, only about four show a correct icon.

It would be a big improvement if we could manually select a basic icon from a standard set, such as:

  • Laptop

  • PC

  • Server

  • NAS

  • Printer

  • Phone

  • TV

  • IoT devices (like heating, cooling, camera, shutters, curtains, ovens, dryers, vacuum cleaners, etc.)

  •  

Personally, I’m not looking for brand-specific icons like Apple or Android logos — just a consistent, neutral TP-Link style would be perfect.

It would also be helpful to allow sorting or grouping clients visually. Some users are more visually oriented than text-based filtering allows.

Thank you very much for considering this!

 

Best regards,

  @Radathag In the new update for the SDN controller it has already been implemented. They always said that the update for OC is a month late so wait impatiently.

Is there something I'm doing wrong with this?  I spent about half an hour changing all the icons of my devices on my network.  had it all setup and looking nice.  Then I rebooted the router (8411) and it was almost all gone.  As a test, I set about 5 devices, rebooted the router, several were gone.  I've also noticed that if I unplug and re-plug a device (like one of my piholes) in a different switch port, the same thing happens.  Is there something that needs to be done to save those or am I missing something?

 

my setup

er8411 v1 1.3.2

RPi5 controller v5.15.24.18

SG3218XP-M2 v1 1.0.11

SG2008p v3.20 1.0.11

SG2005P-PD v1 1.0.11

2x eap772 v2 1.2.2

eap772-outdoor v1 1.0.4

I have a new version. 1.35.7 Build 20250514 Rel.51837 (Stable) Unfortunately there us still no possibility to manually make any changes.

Looking forward to it, as it looks promising on your picture :)

  @Radathag If you checked the pre-release versions, I assume this change is already available:
OC200(UN)_V1_1.36.7_pre-release (built-in Omada SDN 5.15.24 controller)
OC200(UN)_V2_2.21.7_pre-release (built-in Omada SDN 5.15.24 controller)
