WLAN Schedule DOES NOT WORK RELIABLY

Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: v5.6.4

The WLAN scheduling feature does NOT WORK RELIABLY.

 

 

 

Some time it works, sometimes it doesn't !!!  

Very frustrating that you can't rely on implemented functionality to just work.

 

 

Here is my equipment and version numbers : 

 

Router is running the 20220902 beta

Switch is running the 22020909 beta

I haven't found any problems with my WLAN Schedule so far.
Did this function start working reliably after the upgrade?
Does it work properly if you reset it once?
Are there regular times when it doesn't work?

Just striving to develop myself while helping others.

  @Virgo 

I have it set to turn off every wifi radio from Sunday - Thursday from 700pm - 930pm.

 

As an example, It didn't work this past Sunday or Monday but worked last night.  

 

Not sure what you mean by reset it ? I have power cycled all devices since implementing the schedule (which I only started using approx. 3 weeks ago).  The firmware on all devices haven't changed since being implemented (albeit I went from the router 9022 beta to the 1015 beta but revert back to 9022 on the same day).  

 

I wasn't keeping track of when it wasn't working in the beginning as I went through the usual troubleshooting steps (including checking the date / time on controller and router) but each week there was at least one day it didn't work.

It is likely that something has triggered the controller to not send the full configuration, try forget EAP, re-adopt EAP and test again.

  @Virgo 

Thanks for the suggestion.  I will try that next time the issue occurs.

It worked again last night so I'm afraid to play with it right now.  

It would be nice if TP-Link could point me to logs I might be able to look at for clues.  There are no errors or warnings showing up in the controller logs.

Knock on wood.... it's been working as expected since my last posting.

 

I ugpraded to linux omada controller 5.7.4 yesterday and rebooted all equipment after the upgrade.

 

I'll post a reply if the issue manifests again.

With further testing it appears as though the settings don't always get applied. IE: If I pick a time range and apply it, it will say Succeeded but it I don't think it necessarily applied them. I tried hitting apply a few times, changing to a different set of ranges, clicking apply and then setting back to original time range and clicking number a few times and eventually it seems to stick. But you don't know if it correctly applied until the time comes.
