Hey

 

Hopefully this will help

 

Firstly go to SETTINGS then SITE.. look for the advanced features option and select it, choose all the boxes as shown below

 

 

 

Second we need to setup an SSID (Wireless), go to SETTINGS and WIRELESS NETWORKS, create a new network

 

Give it a name and password, would also recommend choosing 2.4 and 5ghz (we enabled band steering in step 1 so it will decide what is best for the device).  

Under advanced choose WPA2-PSK/WPA3-SAE   as its the newest standards.  Screen below    Save when done

 

You should have WiFi in a few mins :)

 

Few things to note..

 

The version of firmware you are running on the APs is too old for that controller, should be 5.0.3 if memory serves me right.   Use the arrows highlighted (far right) above to update these, it will take a few mins

 

Also if you are referring to the Internet Capacity and Gateway below, this wont be effective unless you have an Omada router (TL-R605) so just ignore these.

 

If you have the settings configured above, all should be good :)

 

 

 

Should probably also add, its worth disabling WiFi on your BT Hub as this wont roam with the Omada APs.   Best practice is to disable the WiFi on the router and only use the Omada

Hi Rob

You cannot enable fast roaming without a controller. Download the software or purchase a hardware controller. It is listed in the advanced function. And, the reply from philbert is the solution you need. BTW, roaming won't work across brands. BT router won't support this with TP products.

Hey Yannie

 

In the earlier post Rob had a screenshot of the controller interface on his MACbook, should be ok in this regard.
