Omada & EAP225-Outdoor - limited (8) number of 2.4ghz SSID's
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I have quite a network of EAP225-Outdoor(EU) v3.0 & V1.0
Generally use the same SSID as does work best for 95% of operations
My devices, sonif thermostats & also Tuya plugs etc. they have a habit of disconnecting. all 2.4ghz.
I am fairly sure for some reason they pick up more distant EAP225-Outdoor, rather than pick the nearest & don't even seem to switch very well when they loose again.
Now perhaps more of poor implementation in the individual wifi devices but as not isolated to one type does seem to be a thing.
I found I could 99% avoid this (& confirms my theory) by giving each EAP225-Outdoor a unique 2.4 ghz
The devices then seem to stay connected really well.
Trouble is I tried to add another SSID and the 2.4ghz is Greyed out, 5ghz & 6ghz is OK, I only have a few of those
8 seems the limit. Perhaps this ought to be enough but does restrict me & cause issues.
What are your thoughts, is this a limitation, can you get around or does it make sence & just my unusual requirements.
& very annoying is, if you add the extra SSID in settings/wirelessnetworks/wlan, it adds this to ALL the AP's listed in devices
I have to go into 10 others & turn this off. prob. by design but would thin more natural to add to those that you want, perhaps just me
