EAP650 mesh nodes roaming clients no connection (until EAP restarted)
I have a few omada APs installed and managed by a controller running in docker (latest version) on a ubuntu system:
-
3 x 650 (#1 wired, #1 wireless meshed to #1 ~-68dBm and #3 meshed to #2 ~-55dBm) - all latest FW
-
1 x 650-Wall (wired) - latest FW
Since installing #3 i have had a lot of problems with clients not roaming properly, in particular to the two APs that are wirelessly connected to the wired AP. It seems that any client will connect if near a wired AP, but if they then roam to a meshed one they lose connection (and cannot reconnect).
I have tried:
-
Set to WPA/WPA2 only
-
Disable 6GHz
-
Disable 5GHz
-
All power outputs set to low
-
Resetting the APs and reprovisioning them to the controller
The only way I can get the network to function as expected is by restarting #2 (either physically or via GUI), but even then it falls over after approx 12 hour depending on usage. I currently have a scheduled overnight restart of #2, resulting in everything working until about the evening when it fails.
It appears that clients will roam to #3, but there is then no onwards connectivity to #2 and therefore wider network/WAN. Connected to #3 AP when the system has failed allows me to ping other clients on the AP, but not #2 AP or any WAN address.
thanks for any help/ideas.
