@Fae Hi.
If I'm on the EAP650 I don't get IPv6 connections - when going to other EAP610 Outdoor it comes back and some test like ip6.biz do work.
Nothing special within testing at all.

Hi. It's a little bit confusing now.... So your newest firmware update doesn't solve the IPv6 Packet Drop issues, or am I wrong?
With latest Beta I do still have IPv6 issues while using VLANs. Within the same network connected to a EAP610 Outdoor IPv6 is working - when connecting to the EAP650s the IPv6 connection is lost.
The Beta firmware provided in this thread has solved the IPv6 Packets Drop issue. While the current newest official firmware EAP650 1.0.6 hasn't added the fix. If you still have IPv6 issues with the EAP650_v1_1.0.0_Build 20221116 (Beta), it might be a different case, we'll need to check more details to figure out the issue.

Hello, unfortunately it works only partially for me in the following scenario.
IP addresses are assigned via Router Advertisements "SLAAC" (A flag), as prefix directly from the ISP, 20xx::
Router OPNsense
- Port 1 VLAN-100 & 101
- Port 2 untagged-network & VLAN 102
- Port 3 VLAN-103
Omada Controller (5.8.4) in LXC container
3x TL-SG2008P v3.0 (3.0.4 Build 20221130 Rel.42340)
- Ports = VLAN-profile "all"
WLAN-100 = VLAN-100
WLAN-101 = VLAN-101
WLAN-102 = VLAN-102
WLAN-103 = VLAN-103
1x EAP110-Outdoor(EU) v3.0 (5.0.4 Build 20220216 Rel. 57495)
Everything works as expected
2x EAP653(EU) v1.0 (1.0.0 Build 20221125 Rel. 64067)
WLAN-102 works as expected
WLAN-100 & 101 & 103 does not work, get IPv6 address but no TCP traffic possible, UDP=works
Two workarounds:
- If I don't take the IPv6 addresses from the ISP anymore but fd00:: and process the complete IPv6 traffic via the OPNsense over NAT, then it works in WLAN-100 & 101 & 103 via port 1 & 3. Also here still with about Router Advertisements "SLAAC" (A flag).
- Or, put everything on port 2 of the OPNsense also works

When will there be the official firmware update with solving the problems with the EAP670?
RDP sessions are not working with the EAP670 with default wifi adapter settings.
We need to disable IPv6 on de wifi network adapter to get RDP working when connnecten at the EAP670 AP's
Is it possible to disable the IPv6 on the complete Omada Controler network?

Hello @TAW
Sorry that we don't usually have further insights about when the official firmware will be released.
Actually, the Beta firmware in this solution thread is mainly to fix the issue that wireless clients failed to obtain IPv6 addresses via DHCPv6. For your feedback that RDP sessions are not working with IPv6 connection, we will try to figure out the issue. Could you please provide the following information for further investigation?
1. Try to describe the network topology to show how your devices are connected when you try to run the RDP sessions.
2. Try to elaborate on the procedures to reproduce the issue.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation and patience.

I have the same problem with an EAP655-Wall(EU) v1.0 and EAP650-Wall(EU) v1.0.
The "main" SSID without VLAN tag is working fine with IPv6.
But my guest SSID which is tagged is unusable with IPv6 enabled. I disabled IPv6 on the guest network now.
Is there also a beta firmware for the EAPs that I'm using?

Could you please try the EAP670_v1_1.0.0_Build 20221219 (Beta) provided in the initial solution thread and confirm whether the issue could be resolved? The Beta firmware is newer than the current firmware you have according to the Build number.
