EAP 225 AP's stays disconnected
EAP 225 AP's stays disconnected
So I have bought 3x TP Link EAP-225 access points, which I would like to set-up through the Omada controller. I have previously tried it through the web interface alone, where it worked easily, but I would, again, like to use the controller due to more functionality. So if I do that I get to choose the AP, give a SSID, password and all that, but when it tries to connect (when I click the Ccnnected devices and adopt the found AP) its status says "Provisioning" for a few minutes, and then it ends up in the Disconnected pane. I have tried several times, giving access to some ports in my firewall (that I read should be done), and even disabled my firewall, but nothing have helped.
Does anyone have an idea about what I'm doing wrong here ?

@forrest To say i am disappointed with this EAP225 product is an understatement. I have been battling this same issue since joining my current company in 2018, and currently i am still trying to crack this same issue at our new site. I wonder why you guys cant come up with a straighforward way for deploying this APs. In the past 15 years i have spent in this industry, i have never witnessed this kind of headache and fustration when it comes to a mere setting up an Access Point to connect to a controller. I have deal with quite a number of network devices and this is the worst experience i have ever had on a project.
It's a bit consoling to notice that others are facing the same issue as i do. I have been trying to deploy less than 10 APs at the new site and i can only succeed to connect 5. its quite annoying and there is no doubt that i need to switch brand to save myself this headache going forward.

+1 couldn't agree more with you.
I run into this headache every time the EAP225 loses power and gets stuck in a disconnected state. Why it doesn't just reconnect using the same configuration that was working is beyond me!
