’m looking for some guidance to get the maximum Wi-Fi speed out of my Omada setup. I’ve hit a wall where my speeds seem to be capped, and I can’t figure out why.
The Setup:
• Gateway: ER605
• Controller: OC200
• Switch: TL-SG1210P (PoE)
• Access Points: 3 x EAP650 (all PoE powered)
• Cabling: Cat6 throughout the entire house (apartment).
The Internet/ISPs:
• WAN 1 (Airtel): 200 Mbps plan
• WAN 2 (ACT Fibernet): 100 Mbps plan
• Both ISPs have their own routers. When I connect directly to the Wi-Fi SSIDs of the individual ISP routers, I get the full 200 Mbps and 100 Mbps respectively.
The Issue:
When I connect to the unified SSID broadcast by my Omada EAPs, the maximum speed I can pull is around 90 Mbps.
It feels like there is a 100 Mbps "ceiling" somewhere in the chain. I have tried playing around with Load Balancing settings and turning off the Mesh feature, but nothing has moved the needle.
What I've Checked:
• All cables are Cat6, so they should theoretically support Gigabit speeds.
• The EAPs are all powered via PoE.
I’m not a hardcore networking expert, so I might be missing something obvious in the Controller settings (Bandwidth control, Link speed negotiation, or Load Balancing weights).
Has anyone encountered this ~90 Mbps cap on a dual-WAN Omada setup?
Any specific settings in the OC200 I should look at to ensure the ER605 isn't throttling the combined output?
Appreciate any help or step-by-step guidance you can provide!
TIA!
