I work from home, so I needed a more robust, secure system.I recently swapped out my build from Nest WiFi to TP Link Omada to achieve that goal and so far I have no regrets. Creating vlans for my work equipment, IoT devices and the kids devices is a blessing in disguise. Being able to set bandwidth limits, as opposed to timed priority on Nest WiFi, is great considering I have multiple gamers with one who likes to stream live while I'm working. No I can allocate the bandwidth to my work equipment, the real money maker...lol.
The rate limit is an awesome feature for sure! Also, isolating all or parts of your Network from guests is a great way to secure your Network, especially since you work from home. I have a teenager who plays fornite and call of duty online and tends to suck up all my bandwidth but with limiting his bandwidth I'm all good! Thank you for watching Brian have a great day! 😃
I have a TP Link Mesh network at the moment, rate their products and the coverage from their 3 node mesh network is amazing !!!! Unless something better comes along I'll be sticking with TP Link for me network stuff :-) The Mesh app is great too, just been updated and its so easy to manage my network. Mike, thanks for taking the time to do a detailed video on this, appreciated as always.
TP-Link makes fantastic Mesh equipment and yes they are amazing especially for the price. I've been using tp-link for years so when they contacted me for a review I was like "Heck Yes!" 😁! Once again Bob thank you so much for watching! Hope you have a great Christmas! Cheers from Mike from good ole Las Vegas! 😃
@@UltimateTechHub One stupid question , the controller is good use if this place is 10 miles away from you right? meaning you can troubleshoot and login remotely right?
This is a really great video.Thank you for making it. However, it would be nice to explain why you choose a particular setting. Such as checking off all the wan/lan interfaces. Please explain why you would check on that you are not using.
Great video! I’ve been installing this system for a while now. I’ve noticed as of the last few installs I’ve had deploying this gear, during the setup process on the app, it’s says “cannot add controller” or “this device doesn’t exist” very strange. I’ve had to get on the phone with TPlink tech support. I’m wondering if anyone else has seen this issue as well.
Thank you for this intresting video. Got the complete set-up like this in our restaurant. Only with a TL-SG1016PF switch. Question about that, the switch doesn't show in the controller, it says 0 switches. But everything seems to be working fine but just can't see/control it. Any thoughts? Other question, the modem/router provided by the internet provider, do I turn it's firewall off? So it can't give interference with the settings of the Omada router. Thanks in advance, keep up the good work!
Thanks for this setup video, it was super helpful! Is it better to use fixed IP's that are outside the DHCP pool or static IP's on the devices themselves?
Curious why you changed the controller IP to .100.1 from the default 0.1. Is that simply because you don't want it to be common (since many are 0 or 1) or is there a networking reason? I consider myself pretty good at networking but I have never had a class and consider myself pretty novice so...if this is a newbie question then I fully accept that I may look silly here. 😁
I used 192.168.100.1 because my main network is 192.168.1.1. And I also wanted to show a different networking IP address. Good question and thank you for watching I really appreciate it.
@@UltimateTechHub Oh, OK. Thanks for replying. Makes sense. My current is 1.1 so I will probably stick with the default 0.1 and go from there. Thanks again!
Great video. Couple of questions. Do you use static IPs for router and switch? Also, if I’m moving in 4-5 months, do you know how difficult it would be to relocate all equipment maintaining all settings?
You can use static IP for the switch if you want. The router doesn't need the static IP assignment. As far as moving it's as easy as unplugging everything and plugging it back in at the new location. Settings are all saved. Thank you for watching!
@@UltimateTechHubHow do you assign switch ports and or specific devices/computers on the network to a specific VLAN, so that they are tagged? And then how do you setup rules so that certain VlAN networks can talk to others while others can not? Maybe do a deep dive video on that. Thanks!
Help me understand your ACL. You stated verbally that "We want to block all networks from accessing IoT devices" - didn't you mean that you want to keep IoT devices from accessing the networks. i.e. - bad player gets access to my thermostat, however, he is stuck because the ACL says no IoT traffic on other VLANs. However, when I need to get to my thermostat I do not have to join the IoT network. It appears the ACL you created does exactly that. So would you need a ACL for each VLAN to stop traffic or could you select more destinations? I am not being critical here, just want to make sure I understand. Thanks again...
I'm not sure what went wrong, but I followed you step by step. As you made a change, I made the change, observing your very steps carefully. The disaster started once I changed the Controller's IP address to 192.168.100.2 ... unplugged the cable and plugged it back up. 30 minutes later, still nothing and my network was gone. Everything I had setup including my ER605 had to eventually be reset. There had to have been a change to something since you did this video, or you missed including a step... dunno... but it was a failure and wasted a lot of my time.
If I want to assign a. static ip on reolink cameras - do I need to do that on reolink app or omada? Assuming I put the poe camera in the switch. Thanks.
Second question from this great video. I’m in apartment now so can’t install a WAP. What do you think about buying them controller, router, and switch initially and use my google wifi router as in bridge mode for wifi. Use this setup until May when I move into my new house where I’ll install the WAP. Just wanted to get your opinion.
You can still use the WAP and just run an ethernet cable from the switch to the WAP and leave it on shelf or table. I would use only Omada hardware to keep everything simple and easy to monitor. You could even mount the WAP to the wall and run the cable from the bottom of the wall to the spot where the WAP is located.
Does your ISP router have to be in bridge mode before you start configuring the omada setup ?? Can you do it without being in bridge mode. I have been trying to adopt the er605 router using the controller no poe switch just the router conneted to the omada controller. I edit the lan to 192.168.10.1/24 but the er605 will try to adopt but wont ?? Any suggestions ??
Great Video! Question regarding the ACL - Can i communicate with the IoT Devices via an IoT app, such as Sonos if I am connected to the Main Wireless Network or do I need to switch over to the IoT network? Thanks
Really not understanding what the controller is for and what it does. You mention it in video quite a bit, but i dont really understand what it does and how you are using it. Help.
hmm. you make vlans, but when you have by example 2 networks. 192.168.10.1/24 and 192.168.20.1/24 when you are on a computer with 192.168.10.40 you can not access a device that is on 192.168.20.45 you can only access devices on your own network, or am i wrong?
It's a good video to start things out but where's all the network configuration stuff to create a functional network like with DNS, NTP and a way for people to log in to your WiFi network without having to share the wireless password? How about if you have a guest in your network and you are on the other VLAN how do you AirDrop or share things across apple devices? I think there's a lot more that needs to be covered and I have yet to find a truly comprehensive guide on how to actually properly set up a home network. If someone knows a a complete guide no matter if its video or written please let me know. I also want to know what should I call my network as far as a domain name goes as I find a lot of things that say you should not use the word .local because that is used by mDNS I don't know it is confusing.
You can just use the Omada dashboard for the AP. Just download the Omada software controller and add the AP. This video shows how to download and setup the software controller. This video is for the tp-link switch but works for the AP as well. ua-cam.com/video/ae37i61m8BI/v-deo.html Good luck and keep me posted.
Can I use any poe access points with this system? I'm not trying to spend like 150 bucks per access point but still want good wifi around my property. Thoughts?
@@UltimateTechHub Thank you so much. I followed your guide to set up my network, it was a life saver. I have devices that recommend using IPv6, so wondered how to set it up since I heard it uses both numbers and letters and different punctuation. 🤔
Thanks for this video, i'm curious to know if I were to start with a Omada ER605 router and attach my existing g Deco AP's, would that work as a mesh? I just can't afford to get all the POE swtiches, AP's and Cloud controller yet. But want to build out in the future.
I wondered the same thing myself because I also have the Deco Wifi 6 and in the process of switching to Omada. From what I understand the two systems are not compatible and will not work. I also believe that you can put those in stand alone mode and it will broadcast wifi from your wifi router.
Hi, sorry I maybe late to the ball game with OMADA. My provider modem router combo is actiontec T3200m. Correct me if I am wrong, will I set the T3200m to port bridging? Then connect the port1 of the t3200m to the WAN port of the OMADA er605? Thanks for the help in advance....
Are you restricted to certain kinds of cameras for the setup with this switch? Or can you use any POE cameras? And how do you view them? On the Omada app/website?
I just got one of these and Im having a hard time port forwarding my PS 5 for remote play. Im not seeing a spot for TCP or UDP anywhere. Can you help me please?
I just upgraded to 2gig fiber from frontier. The router they gave use is a eero pro 6e. The problem is it only has 1 2.5g port and that is required for the ont connection. My question is could I put my eero into access point only mode and then use this tplink router in place of it?
Yes that would work. Plug the ethernet cable from the LAN port on the eero into the LAN port on the VPN router. Setup the eero as an access point. Turn off DHCP on your eero. This should work perfectly.
@@Mantis_Toboggan You are all good. The TP-Link VPN router is fantastic and a great price. Keep me posted if you have any further questions. Happy New Year as well!
Thank you for the video. I currently set up my home network and have a question. There are 2 desktop pc's and I would to know if you connect those directly to one of the Lan ports of the router, or to patch panel? Thank you
I am just a home user that wants to avoid the hassle of consumer-grade wifi routers and mainly only need a wired network. So far all these tutorial guides make use of hardware/software controllers. Can't I just use the router itself with no controller? Then add a switch for more connectivity and an old wifi router as an AP if I need to? Thanks to anyone with an answer.
Yes no controller is needed. Just use the Omada cloud software to access the VPN router and switch. You can add as many APs as you want. Thank you for watching and if you subscribed thank you as well. 😀
Great video! Question about the Omada controller/cloud. I want to avoid subscriptions, but still would like to have remote access to the network admin. As I understand it, you can pay $10/yr/device for their cloud service for remote management? Is there any way to avoid this and set something up via a VPN instead, and use that to access the network and thereby the admin portal, perhaps? Doesn't the Omada controller have some sort of VPN functionality built in?
I have one tp link eap 650. All I want to use it for is to take my wifi from my Verizon FiOS router from one side of my house to the other side. tp eap650 is linked via Ethernet cable to my modem/router, it's a combo unit. How can I make my tp link have the same SSID as my current wifi. Sorry very tech stupid hear, just trying my best.
@vilifyahuman Did you figure this out? I’d like to use one on my home WiFi as well, but not sure how to configure it since it appears to need special configuration.
Trying to set up a complete Omada system with 14 outdoor AP's (158 acre Trailer Park). I would like to issue separate passwords that expire for each site. (Like a hotel does). Is this possible? Tks for any help you can share.
No, you will need some software for that operation. Do an internet search for hotel wireless network management. You can add that software to your network.
Omada does this. Look at hotspot manager function. You can made vouchers which expire. As you can deploy 8 ssid per AP, youl will need a couple of them. I would go one on one ssid per plot. I see 14 AP planned times 8 equals 112 possible different ssids. But more plot could eventually use the same ssid as well. Deploy hotspot manager within omada controller. It will do the job.
What is that with cloudfare? do you have to pay for that or can I just copy paste from your "tutorial" and it'll work? ... running a business where 30 pple require internet. :)
New TP- Link Switch video just posted here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/ae37i61m8BI/v-deo.html All products in this video are linked in the description. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Look for more Tp-Link Omada videos in the coming months! Thank you for watching and for subscribing! 😀
@@UltimateTechHub wow thanks for the fast response! the reason i asked is because i just installled an access point using ethernet to an outbuilding on my property. my “ap” is actually an outdated asus router that isn’t even compatible with ai mesh. all i did was give it the same ssid and pw as the main router and i noticed that as i roam around the property, my devices seem to just automatically switch between my router and ap depending on which one i’m getting the strongest signal from. i thought maybe the controller had something to do with seamless roaming.

Omada does this. Look at hotspot manager function. You can made vouchers which expire. As you can deploy 8 ssid per AP, youl will need a couple of them. I would go one on one ssid per plot. I see 14 AP planned times 8 equals 112 possible different ssids. But more plot could eventually use the same ssid as well. Deploy hotspot manager within omada controller. It will do the job.
What is that with cloudfare? do you have to pay for that or can I just copy paste from your "tutorial" and it'll work? ... running a business where 30 pple require internet. :)
yiss, i've been like #500 .. woohow
CloudFlare is completely free. Just follow my tutorial. Thanks for watching!
can I use pfsense with omada switch, ap and controller? thanks
I believe can use any router so pfense should work. Keep me posted if it doesn't work.
Yes that’s what I have setup.

Why the 670 over the 650? 3200 sq ft two story home was considering the 650. Or would you recommend the 610?
6 months later….what happened to the series?

Terrible support and warranty
Worked for 3 months
How long did it take to get the RMA? Any discounts on shipping charges or full price. Has it been good since it was repaired?
If I need a smartphone to configure everything... I will never get one of these...
You don’t
Are these “controllers” really necessary? Seems like a gimmick device that has features that should be right in the router anyway?
The controller isn't really necessary. You don't need it to manage the network.
@@UltimateTechHub wow thanks for the fast response! the reason i asked is because i just installled an access point using ethernet to an outbuilding on my property. my “ap” is actually an outdated asus router that isn’t even compatible with ai mesh. all i did was give it the same ssid and pw as the main router and i noticed that as i roam around the property, my devices seem to just automatically switch between my router and ap depending on which one i’m getting the strongest signal from. i thought maybe the controller had something to do with seamless roaming.
