Model: ER605 (TL-R605)   OC200  
Hardware Version: V5
Firmware Version: 1.28.2 Build 20240110 Rel.78776

Dear users & TP Link,

 

I'm stuck on a nasty error trying to get my Omada system working at home.

My setup is as follows:

ISP Router is the gateway to the WWW

OC200 Hardware Controller is connected to the ISP Router on 192.168.0.219 and accesible through the cloud.

 

I have now run (& re-run with factory reset) the following sequence, but my ER605 router fails to show up on the controller:

- Factory Reset ER605 v2 router

- Login to the router through 192.168.0.1

- Quick Setup the router to connect to the web:

During this steps the device complains that it can't use 192.168.0.1 (already taken by ISP router), so I use 192.168.4.1 as the LAN IP, and DHCP range 192.168.1.1-255

The Router connects to the web and shows up on my ISP Router at address 192.168.0.130

I then "inform" the OC200 controller about the ER605 router - through the admin page of the router.

This works, and the router shows up for adoption in the OC200.

 

Now things get tricky:

Adoption runs - gets stuck a long time on Configuring - and then suddenly shows as Disconnect.

It does not come back, although the router is still connected to my ISP Router.

 

Any ideas or guidance on how to solve this?

I've done factory resets on both the controller and the router, but the problem persists

 

KR,

Thomas

First of all, put fixed ip on the controller,eg 192.168.4.2/24  i see many people use dynamic ip on it and that can cause problems.

 

And before you adopt the router, log on to the controller and set the IP on the default LAN interface to something other than what you have on the WAN. eg 192.168.4.1/24

 

Then log on to the router in stand alone and set the same IP as you have set on the controller 192.168.4.1/24

 

Then adopt the router and enjoy your new network.

 

a tip is to go to the product's support page and FAQ,
