Hi
I’m doing some tests regarding the band steering feature and it seems it doesn’t work, I’m using only 1 AP, here are the details about the hardware and software configuration.
EAP225(EU) v3.0 (5.0.0 Build 20200918 Rel. 58628)
Controller: 4.2.8 (Linux)
Current clients connected
- 2.4Ghz: 18
- 5Ghz: 4
Band steering settings
- Connection Threshold: 256
- Difference Threshold: 20
- Maximum Failures: 1
In all my tests every time the rssi is above -70 the devices first association are always on the 2.4Ghz radio, if the rssi drops below -70 the devices first association uses the 5Ghz radio.
So, I don’t know if the band steering isn’t working or if it has a rssi threshold of -70db, in other vendors there’s an option to change the rssi threshold for the band steering but on the Omada controller I don’t see any option.
I need the band steering feature to avoid using 2 SSID’s for each band.
Regards.

Hi,
In March, I opened a ticket and got a call from my local TP-Link support, I explained the issue and they said they would forward the information to the engineering team for an answer about the possibility of an RSSI threshold associated with the band steering feature, since the call in March I have never received a final response from TP-Link support.
I have since given up on the band steering feature and ended up configuring two different SSIDs, one for each radio.
Regards.
