Hi Fae. It was the Lock to AP. I had thought it removed however it was still active. Disabling the feature allowed the Nest to connect again. This is still a bit concerning however, as the Nest is no more than 2m away from the EAP615 AP and it would not connect until it was allowed to connect to an AP that was on the otherside of the house.

 

Thank you for your confirmation. Perhaps you may enable Lock to AP after your Nest is connected to make your Nest stay connected the target AP. If there is anything new came up, please feel free to let us know.

Has anyone been brave enough to test this firmware out on their EAP 610 v2s? I've been wanting PPSK support for a long while now, and I see that it's been added to the v3, but the only way that I'll even think about loading this firmware onto my APs is if the firmware is stable. I don't want to make my family suffer through wireless issues just because I want to play with a feature.

6GHz_PPSK  @EyeBrowse Just kidding, I did what I said I wasn't going to do and upgraded the APs anyway. I can always downgrade them in a pinch.

 

The first thing I noticed when configuring the PPSK feature is the attached photo. What gives?

The PPSK is not supported by 6GHz, please uncheck the 6GHz box so that you can configure the security with PPSK.

PPSK Configuration Guide

 

BTW, your EAP610 doesn't support 6GHz band, checking the box of 6GHz doesn't make sense.

  @Fae Huh, I just read through the device spec and you're entirely right. I guess I misread Wifi 6 as 6GHz when I moved from 802.11ac to 802.11ax. 
 

I'll disable the 6GHz option then! 
 

Why is PPSK not supported over 6GHz frequencies?

The limitation of PPSK (Private Pre-Shared Key) not being supported over 6GHz frequencies is primarily due to technical reasons.

 

In general, PPSK relies on a specific encryption standard called WPA2-Personal. The 6GHz frequency band, also known as Wi-Fi 6E, introduces new advancements in Wi-Fi technology, including the use of WPA3-Personal for enhanced security. WPA3-Personal offers improved encryption protocols and stronger security measures compared to WPA2-Personal. However, the PPSK mechanism used in WPA2-Personal is not compatible with the new features and enhancements introduced in WPA3-Personal. Therefore, PPSK is not supported over 6GHz frequencies because it relies on the older WPA2-Personal encryption standard.

 

To enjoy the benefits of Wi-Fi 6E and the enhanced security provided by WPA3-Personal, alternative authentication methods like WPA3-Personal with individual passwords or enterprise-level authentication mechanisms can be used instead.

  @Fae 

 

Hello,

Here same issues with devices at 2,4 Ghz band.
At the EAP670 and the EAP650-Wall no 2,4 Ghz devices connected with the beta firmware.

May I know the following information?

1. What's previous and current firmware version of your EAP670 and EAP650-Wall?

2. What's the current version of your Omada Controller?

3. Could you please elaborate on the 2.4GHz issue? Are the 2.4GHz devices connected but get no network connection, or 2.4GHz devices are failed to connect on 2.4GHz band? Is there any error message?
