Model: EAP610-Outdoor  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

With the 610 Outdoor supporting Wifi 6 and multiple SSID (8 per band), is it possible to configure a second SSID on the 610 that is only 6ghz? I have looked through Omada controller and I know I can create wifi groups and then put each EAP into that group, but I do not see how you assign multiple SSID and designate what band to use on that SSID.

Yes, you can do that, check this, only enable 6G.

Huh?

 

The EAP610 Outdoor does not support 6 GHz (aka Wifi-6E)

https://www.tp-link.com/us/business-networking/omada-sdn-access-point/eap610-outdoor/#specifications

 

It does support Wifi-6 (602.11ax) on 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies.

 

I believe the only TP-Link Omada product which is currently support 6GHz is the new EAP690E.

 

This is most likely a bug in the Omada software as 6GHz functionality was only recently added to the GUI.

@JSchnee21 yes I think you are correct. It is confusing to see 6Ghz as an option. I did connect a laptop that supports wifi 6 to it and it shows as 602.11ax and connects to either the 2.4 or 5ghz of the EAP610.

 

So I guess my question still remains, but slightly modified. Can I setup two SSID on the EAP610, one having 2.4 + 5ghz, and the other having just 5ghz and then have a client connect to only the SSID that is 5ghz?

 

 

@Virgo Yes I was aware of being able to that, but once I have created that, how do I set it as the second SSID of the EAP610?
