Update: It was DNS… its always DNS…
Hello there! I’m in a bit of a pickle… I’ve recently bought the full budget Tp-link omada stack for my homelab. I got the following devices in my stack:
I’ve set it all up and it was working fine for the first few days of using it. However, last few days it’s been working very much on and off randomly(?) . Basically devices will state they are connected to WiFi/Ethernet, but they are not actually getting it. (As seen in the picture). This is happening with our phones(Pixel7+S23U) and my server(NAS:Unraid), have not noticed any problems on our desktop PCs. So it is happening on both wired and wireless, as my server and desktop PC is connected to the switch.
I haven’t done many configurations in the omada software yet, but am assuming it’s something I have done that causes this… Would greatly appreciate any advice to solve/troubleshoot this!
