Hi,

 

my new toys (see pic) bring me some unexpected headache.
first the EAP225 was visible and adopted without any issue. later they connected in strange ways... in a chain or all to one of the wired EAPs even it there is a other EAP more near and with better signal.
now they refuse to stay connected of the adopt even works most of the time it fails.
rebooting/powercycling  (also the OC200 and the wired EAPs) and also factory resetting the 225's don't change anything

now i moved them back in and put them within 1m of the wired EAPs and they still don't work ... whole setup is only a few weeks old

 

did i miss some incompatibility with this devices?

Is there something wrong with this setup expect the wrong brand switch :) I wrote already a letter to Santa about a correctly branded switch :)

 

Regards

ASD

you need to see what channels you have on the different access points, if the outdoor access point is set to outdoor mode it will only operate on channel 100 and above (EU) if your other access point is on e.g. channel 40 they will never be able to talk to each other
