Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.10

Hi, this is a feature request for Festa Cloud.

 

I have a Festa FR365 Gateway that does not work with Omada. Most basic features offered by all consumer routers are not available in the device's local admin interface, users are pushed to use Festa Cloud to unlock most features (port forwarding, DHCP reservations, just to name a few). I have wired devices connected directly to my FR365 and they do not show up in the wired device list, so I can't set up DHCP reservations for them. 

 

This issue has been raised before by other users, like here: https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/682384, and here https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/814946, but "just buy a Festa switch" is not an acceptable answer for a product that has physical interfaces.

 

This request simply addresses the need for feature parity with consumer grade products like the Archer AX55 which has all classic router functionalities without the need for Festa Cloud. If we're going to be pushed into adopting Festa Cloud by removing features from the local admin interface, we can accept the business decision, but it's only sensible then to have access to basic features, specially considering this is marketed towards small business. I should not be forced to buy a Festa switch to manage my wired devices when my router/gateway has wired ports, that's unacceptable.

 

Thank you!
