How to STOP 2 ethernet wired EAPs always connecting via uplink?
Well Ive had two EAP225 v3 for years and they worked fine. Both ethernet wired back to the main switch wiht cat 6 cable via POE injectors. Until that is I upgraded the Omada controller to be 6.0.0.24.
Now one ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS has an UPLINK connection via the other one. I have:
1 turned off mesh in Omada controller. Why that is buried somewhere obscure I don't know
2 Re-provisioned the APs
3 Rebooted the APs
4 Reset the APs
5 Hardware reset the APs
And yet they always re-establish an UPLINK connection.
I don't get it. The ethernet must be working as its providing POE?
What else can I do? Other than buy ubiqiti.
Hi @kyoku
Thanks for posting here.
Do you mean that the EAP shows the wrong topology on the controller's map page? If yes, could you please share a screenshot of the topology page?
Is the POE switch or the gateway router not TP-Link?
Correct topology identification requires that the device support/enable LLDP. Please check this on the router and the gateway, and make sure they are enabled for LLDP.
Here is the page to enable LLDP for EAP:

@Vincent-TP Hi,
I have an Aruba switch and the Omada interface is different.
Hi @kyoku
Sorry for the late reply.
Click Site settings, and scroll down, you will see the LLDP option:
