Model: EAP235-Wall  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 3.2.2

I have enabled IPv6 on the ER7206 Router, and configured IPv6 DHCP on my subnets. The wired connections are all still working perfectly. But the Wireless EAP325-Wall connections are unusably slow, seem to block communication.


 

The speed drops from 400MBit/s to about 200Kbps, with long delays and failures to connect.

 

I have 5 of these units, and they all exhibit the same problem.

 

Reverting these to firmware 3.1.1 (which does not claim to support IPv6) solves the issue. This removes the ability for the EAP to be assigned an IPv6 address itself, but the clients still get an IPv6 address, and seem to work ok.

 

I have actually been trying to figure out an issue with impossibly slow Apple AirPrint printing for months, which I think was also IPv6 (link-local) related. Reverting to EAP firmware 3.1.1 has also fixed this problem!

 

I think we need a firmware fix for these devices.

Please ignore the reminder.

We are releasing a new firmware version 3.2.3, and it will fix the issue.

May I know where did you get the firmware 3.2.2? 

The latest firmware on our official website is 3.1.1.

Hi @Vincent-TP , 

 

The Omada controller offered 3.2.2 as an upgrade. After downgrading, the controller is reminding me again to update the EAPs to 3.2.2.

 

Cheers,

Mark

Re:EAP235-Wall network transmission issues with IPv6

  @Vincent-TP I have 2 aps in my network. A Eap 245 at center of the house and a Eap 235 wall in a bedroom. When i,m in a coverage of 245 everything works fine. I have a 200mb internet speed and i reach that speed on a Eap 245. Altough, when i go to bedroom the Eap 235wall works bad, slow. I downgrade the firmare from 3.2.3 to 3.1.1 and the 3.1.1 works better than 3.2.3. Then I say, the 3.2.3 firware dont solve the problem yet. Any sugestion? Greetings from Brazil. Thanks

When you are in the bedroom, how many speed can you get? Did you check if the clients are connecting to the EAP235-wall or still connecting to the EAP245? You can check it from the controller interface.

 

And when you roll back to 3.1.1, how many speed will you get when in the bedroom?

In Eap 235 wall in 5g almost 50 to 80mbps. So I change to Eap 245 and the Speed reach 200mbps, the maximum. I dont understand why Eap 235 dont reach 200mbps like eap 245. Near the door of bedroom i see the Eap 245 reach 200mbps and the Eap 235 wall on a wall distance of 3 meters dont have good speed. So I see more quality on Eap 245 in 2.4g then Eap 235 wall in 5g.
