EAP245 not passing Provisioning status during adoption
Hello,
I am opening a new thread because in all other threads I read, I could not find a workable solution to my issue.
I just recently purchases a bundle of EAP245 v3 + Switch TL-SG108PE for my home network, after getting poor results with other solutions as wifi repeaters and consumer mesh wifi systems.
My home consists of 3 floors with several concrete/brick walls.
The topology of the network is as shown below:
I successfully configured the standalone EAP's via both the iOS App as well via web browser, and that is all working fine.
The issue I am having is that once I set up the Omada Cloud Software Controller, I am not able to Adopt any of the devices.
When I try to adopt any of them, they briefly go from status PENDING to status PROVISIONING, which lasts from a few seconds, up to about a minute, and then they go back to PENDING.
I am by no means an experienced user when it comes to networks, so I am kind of lost in what else I could try to get them to adopt.
I know I could just use them as standalone, but I would like to take advantage of Seamless roaming.
Things I have tried so far:
- Update the EAP's and the software controller to the latest available firmware (5.0.4 and 5.0.15 respectively)
- Update the switch's firmware. However, for some reason, I get an error when trying to install the latest version.
- Run the adoption with all the EAP's in factory reset status (multiple times).
- Enable the 'Cloud-Based Controller Management' option within the EAP controllers and input the controller's IP address and port as seen from the ISP router.
- Temporarily removing the third EAP (Third floor) and connect my PC directly to the switch. The issue still remains for the other two EAP's.
- Temporarily turning off all Windows/Third-party firewalls and antivirus.
Any help from the experts around here would really be appreciated! :)
