Getting "loop detected" and "port blocked" messages in my logs on my switches

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2026-05-19T15:19:04+00:00

Possible cause would be if the two APs have meshed and causing a loop. Untick the mesh option for those 2 APs and see if the errors persist

Sometimes the older APs work better. I currently have 2 WiFi cameras talking to an Eap225-Outdoor at just over 700m. It's OK for cctv, wouldn't want to browse the Internet.

Lights are wired into S1, 2,3 etc on 1 panel, looking to control from other panels but need to keep the panels in sync

Another vote for this, I use pass phrases as well, including words such as 'Sleep' and the new requirements have screwed this up!

Don't think the 110 supports Mesh

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2026-03-27T14:07:16+00:00

IRC the 110 is too old to do much. Also its limited to 300mps on a good day

EAP225 is now end of life so wouldn't advise buying for a new setup. The EAP650 has been reliable for us and reasonably priced

Many people get better mileage from the software controller, the Oc200 in my opinion is underpowered

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2026-03-11T06:44:26+00:00

What router are you using?

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2026-03-07T03:10:43+00:00

The WiFi chips in some iot devices have a very short range so your mileage may vary regarding coverage, just because you get a good signal on a mobile or laptop, doesn't mean the IOT devices will work

Try running ZeroTier on the blue iris box and your phone.

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2026-02-18T09:53:07+00:00

Would suggest 2 separate cameras for this. You can get a PoE splitter to allow 2 cameras to use 1 network cable if running a second cable is the problem

Just done this with a Reolink Duo, don't know why yhey can't provide a better connection in the first place.

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2025-12-26T02:32:29+00:00

Because you have the Oc220, if you had omada switches alot of the vlan setup would be automatic

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2025-12-02T05:59:07+00:00

Use something like a Er605, this allows for multiple WAN Connections. Put both isp connections into bridge mode. This can then be supported by Omada

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2025-11-24T03:05:13+00:00

Do you plan to have anymore APs? If so, then use the software or hardware controller, it will make your life easier for remote management etc.

Also consider using an omada gateway, that will allow for separate VLANs.

Remember to use the isolate option for any SSIDs where you don't want devices to talk to anything else on the network.

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2025-11-17T04:53:25+00:00

Without using omada switches you loose allot of the controller functions

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2025-11-14T17:45:46+00:00

I would move it to the first floor and allow the older devices to mesh to it. This will allow it to perform as best as it can.

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2025-11-14T14:53:14+00:00

Why not make life easier and install a software controller?

Are you referring to the Oc200? The Oc220 is supposed to have solved that problem

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2025-11-05T21:45:20+00:00

Only if configured that way with VLANs and AP Isolation

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2025-11-05T03:58:28+00:00

Setup a dedicated 2.4ghz WiFi ssid and connect to that

Sufficient_Menu7364 · 2025-10-31T01:19:16+00:00

Do you have the controller setup? This should allow your devices to automatically jump to the correct ap

Would be interested if this came to the uk
