Omada Controller v6 – Missing Information and Already Compatible Firmware?
Hi everyone,
I've noticed that both the OC200 and OC300 controllers are showing repeated messages indicating that some features will be removed or changed starting with Omada Controller v6.
At the same time, I’ve seen that some beta and early access firmware versions for APs (EAP6**) and switches are already marked as tested with or prepared for Omada v6.
However, I haven’t seen anything of Omada Controller v6 itself yet — not even a beta or early access version.
This raises a few questions for me:
- When can we realistically expect the release of Omada Controller v6?
- Is there a roadmap or any official information about the planned changes or new features in v6?
- And most importantly: Why are there already device firmwares available for a controller version that hasn’t even been released yet?
It's a bit confusing when the devices seem to be one step ahead, while the central software platform isn't available yet.
Maybe someone here has more insight or TP-Link can comment on this.
Best regards,
Tim
Hi @TW_EPC
The Omada Controller V6 is on the way. I believe the pre-released version will be released no later than next week---this is not ganranteed.
And most importantly: Why are there already device firmwares available for a controller version that hasn’t even been released yet?
>>> Our company offers a wide range of products, with different models being developed and maintained by separate teams. As a result, development progress varies across products. It's only natural that those completed earlier are released first, while others follow in due course.
The forum team arent allowed to discuss any roadmap, upcoming features, or release dates any more. Who knows why
>>>Because we genuinely don't have this information. Even if we do obtain some details, we still can't guarantee they'll be implemented exactly as planned..
