Use of eth2 bridging port

2020-11-16 19:02:28 - last edited 2020-11-27 01:19:23

Model: EAP245

Hardware Version: V3

Firmware Version:

Is it possible to use the eth2 port on EAP245 to simply connect to a non-wireless device? i.e. I would like to just plug in a device that does not have wireless capability, this is not a different network that I am bridging, I just want to connect to the same network. I use the Omada controller software for this and and an EAP225. FYI I am trying to avoid difficult fishing of a new cable and the existing cable is not positioned to add a switch. Thanks!

Dear @DaddyMakesVodka,

Is it possible to use the eth2 port on EAP245 to simply connect to a non-wireless device? i.e. I would like to just plug in a device that does not have wireless capability, this is not a different network that I am bridging, I just want to connect to the same network.

Why not? The eth2 port on EAP245 is a bridge port, which can be connected to a network device to pass through the Internet connection.

It doesn't need to be a wireless device, a PC/switch/AP will be okay.
