About to go all in on Omada. Have a few questions...
Hello everyone,
I'm about to go all in on Omada (controller, router, switch and bunch of AP)
General background:
I have a home setup with *lots* of smart home devices / home assistant etc. I'm in a mudbrick house so getting wifi through walls is a **** nightmare. All routers etc are on ethernet backbone etc.
I've been using asus ZenWiFi xt8 (4 in a mesh) up to now. Lots of little problems.
Also have 24 port unmanaged 10/100/1000 switch which is a bit dodgy I think needs replacing...
Recently added a tp650 outdoor AP via MoCA at my front gate as only way to get wifi up there. Impressed with tp650, thought "screw it, let's go omada throughout"
Thinking of oc200 controller.A switch that has 2.5g a router of some sort. Bunch of AP
Need to decide on what switch / router to get... But..
First question
* Asus zenwifi has their AI threat security protection on the router, is there an Omada equivalent?
Second question
* want to have 2.5g linking all AP (if AP support that) and also want to have 2.5g for desktop, nas etc.. Will need vlan support in future, router will be connected to wired internet but would like a 4g/5g backup in future. (current internet is 260mbs approx. I live in Australia and internet is a bit 💩 and 💵)
Recommendation on what router and what switch to get?
I used to work in IT for 16 years but back then even 1gb lan was rare and expensive so things have changed a bit haha so sorry for dumb questions,
Thanks in advance :)
