Hi,

I bought some TP-Link Omada stuff and want to setup it now. To prepare a defined network area (192.168.42.X) I want to setup the router first. 

I connected the LAN Port (on the right side, port 5) of the ER7206 directly to my laptop (I did try it with a Desktop Switch between, but it also didn't work), and disabled my Wifi connection to disconnect from my current home network. A modem is currently not connected to the WAN port of the router.

PWR LED is green, SYS LED is blinking green slowly, both LED on LAN port 5 are green.

And now I'm trying to connect to 192.168.0.1 from my browser. But I can do what I want, I can't reach the site. 

When I'm running the Win10 troubleshoot, I get the message: "Ethernet" doesn't have a valid IP configuration. I searched in the www for that and tried a lot of suggestions. ipconfig /flushdns, checking if ip adress is obtained automatically, set it test wise manual to 192.168.0.23 and add 192.168.0.1 as gateway, but nothing works. 

I changed the network cable, too. Did some Hardware resets of the router, some Win10 restarts, tested the port 4 of the router, changed the laptop.... 

I also have the OC200 controller, SG2428p Switch and some Access Points, but that stuff is not connected at the time. 

I'm completely lost and hope, that you can help me. 

Output from ipconfig, when "Obtain IP adress automatically": 

Ethernet adapter Ethernet:

   Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :

   Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : deleted it for the community..

Don't know, where the IPv4 address comes from. Must be from the ER7206 router. I expected an address from 192.168.0.X ....

Thanks,
