Hi @banksiaboy 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

Do you access the controller from the cloud? Then you are limited to some functions. Try this locally.

 

The note has already explained this. If you miss this.

 

If you still cannot find it, paste a screenshot of your page.

Thanks Clive, I was using a software controller locally. I have gone to using the switch stand-alone. When I have mastered that, I will try the a Omada and controller again. Cheers..

Hello @Clive_A,

 

I have updated my OC300 to latest version, and after that, i can not access the controller, the cloud status is offline, i can not accessed it by its assigned IP and also can not access it from fallback IP.

I haven't tried to reset the controller and definitely will try to reset it, but sadly i currently do not have latest configuration backup.

 

so my question is, if i reset the controller, are the configuration backups that stored in internal storage also deleted?

If you did not export it outside the device or store it on a USB drive, it will be lost.

hi  @Clive_A 

First of all, tell you that I am speaking to you with Google Translate. My English is basic. Sorry.

I use the OC200 and controlled it by software. Also try to configure it to control it from the cloud without having the PC connected to the switch. 
then I lost access to the controller. Everything still works but I can't access the oc200 or the router, switch, etc.
I don't have a saved configuration, it's better not to talk about this. I'm crying. 
I still see the OC200 in the Cloud Management Platform but it is disconnected with no possibility of entering it.

 


First of all, thank you very much for reading me and for your selfless help. Waiting, greetings

 

I have

OC200 V.2

ER7206

TL-SG210P(UN)

Captura

If the question is not related to this guide, please post a new thread with your information. The community will try to help you out.

 

As for the problem described, you should check if the controller is connected to the Internet and is powered. Try to log into it locally and see if there is any change to it that disconnects the Internet.
