Hi,

 

I am running a voucher-based authentication with a data limit enabled (1GB per guest) for our wireless network in our small tea shop. I decided to have data limit enabled since I do not have unlimited internet (only 1TB monthly data allowance). On average, we have approximately 20-30 users daily (20-30Gb data) but on my internet provider's router statistics it shows 40-50GB of data. It's impossible for me and my colleague to use an extra 20Gb. So I changed my router password thinking someone might have accessed our WiFi network but it did not make any difference. 

 

Upon doing my investigation, I found out that my Omada voucher is showing incorrect data usage counts. I created a 500mb data voucher for my iPad to check the statistics. I downloaded a 139MB update for an app and here are the stats on the Omada controller:

 

 

Fig 1. Highlighted in red is the amount of data to be downloaded for an update.

Fig 3. Total amount of data downloaded (79.24mb) based on statistics of OMADA controller. 

 

Fig 4. Data usage in bytes based on my internet provider's router.

 

 

Here's the usage of one of my users earlier today.

I hope @Fae can escalate this to R&D. Thank you!

I tried to downgrade to the previous version  (OC200(UN)_v1_1.7.4 Build 20210118) but it won't let me do it. I am getting in circles.

I would like to commend the TP-LINK team for sorting this out for me. 

 

It turns out that this issue is just isolated on IOS devices and the application size displayed in the iOS App Store is not the size of the installation package to download but the Install size indicating the amount of disk space that the app will take on the phone.


For those who are on voucher authentication please find the thread below for a thorough explanation.
