EAP650(Eu) V1 - Lower throughput on tagged VLAN SSIDs
EAP650(Eu) V1 - Lower throughput on tagged VLAN SSIDs
2022-07-15 17:41:15
Model: EAP650  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.3 Build 20220316 Rel. 51972

Hello

 

I've recently acquired 2 EAP650 to deploy and replace another WiFi system.

 

While testing the configuration I've come to the issue that  the SSIDs that are on tagged VLANs have much lower throughput.

 

SSID with no VLAN tag(ID 1), guest not enabled: ~500Mbps to WAN

SSID with VLAN tag (ID3),  guest not enabled: ~140Mbps

Tried both with OFDMA enabled / disabled, issue persisted.

 

Connection is as follows:

 

OPNsense (Firewall, Router) - > Port#1 of Switch TL-SG105E (VLAN1 port 1-5 untagged, VLAN 3 port 1 and 5 tagged PVID 1, port 2 untagged PVID 3) -> EAP650 (Switch Port #5)

 

PC on Port#2 of switch for cross check.

PC connected directly via switch on port#2 throughput is as expected, ~500Mbps.

 

EAP directly on Router/Firewall, issue persists.

 

The Omada controller is running on a LXC container.

 

Could this be a firmware issue? I saw another thread regarding TCP protocol issues on 650/653 and 670 EAPs. Any update in the works that could be shared to test?

 

Hopefully this is not an hardware issue, because in that case I'd have to return both EAPs.

  @s0x Hello,

 

I'm getting approx 670 Mbps on tagged SSID both upload and download speed on 80 MHz wide channel at 5 GHz 802.11ax at EAP653 with last (1.0.1) firmware.

 

Do you have latest firmware? Try iperf between your Wi-Fi device and local wired device.

  @jrypacek Hi

 

Yes, it's on latest firmware currently publicly available, 1.0.3 Build 20220316 Rel. 51972.

 

I did test with both a 2Gbit LAG and Single 1Gbit port from switch to router/firewall. On all the situations the Wi-Fi client was connected to 5GHz, configured for 80Mhz.

Re:EAP650(Eu) V1 - Lower throughput on tagged VLAN SSIDs
2022-07-22 16:51:48

@Fae Hello

 

Any update on the possible issues found by R&D? Also discussed here https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/559240

 

Is there any beta firmware I could test?

 

Thank you

Sorry that I haven't been informed of an update on the issue yet. But the R&D team confirmed that they would provide a Beta firmware to fix the issue, I'll let you know once the beta firmware is available. Thank you for your great patience!

  @Fae Hi

 

Sorry to bother you so much, any news?

 

Since reporting the issue I saw that another customer has opened a topic regarding issues with both EAP 670/653.

 

I also when opening this topic sent a support request via form, but never got any response or information regarding that.

 

Thank you

Thank you for your query. It takes some time to work out a solution to the issue.

I've pushed the R&D team to make a beta firmware, will keep you informed in this original post once the beta firmware is ready.

 

Edit: @s0x  the beta firmware has been provided in the mentioned post, please have a check. Thanks for your cooperation and patience!
