Wifi Setup Issues

Wed Dec 27, 2023 7:30 pm

Hi All,
I am a current user of Unifi AP's - but I have real problems with the (what appears to be) garbage firmware that Ubiquiti produce that just doesn't work properly, so I thought I would give MKT a go. (Case in point I am on Ubiquiti Firmware 6.0.21 because everything I have tried after that just doesn't work properly, usually to do with DHCP - but not always)

Anyway - I have a CRS326-24G-2S-RM running RoS6.49.11 (I was going to switch to SwOS - but thought I give this a try)
I have 2 AP's - cAP AC. RBcGi-5acD2nD

What I would like to eventualy achieve:
  • 3 SSID, 1 on VLAN 1, one on VLAN 66, 1 on VLAN 254
    5Ghz range optional - only if it doesn't cause issues - could optionally use a second SSID for 5Ghz, on VLAN 1 - other VLANs not required
    Speed really not a major issue - I don't need the fastest speeds, just reliable connection
    Central Management

Immediate achievement goals
  • Single SSID on 2.4MHz, VLAN 1

I looked at a couple of you tube videos, including one from Mikrotik which made the whole process look simple (at least initially) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taQ70m0 ... l=MikroTik
The CRS326 is acting as an L2 switch - thats all it will ever be. No L3 functionality required. Any VLANs will terminate on the OpenSense router which is plugged into another switch elsewhere on the network. At the moment the CRS is actually doing nothing - its just plugged in to the network via a single cable to another switch and only passing VLAN 1
I setup CapsMan as per the you tube video, attached a AP to a (different) PoE switch with the reset pressed port near my desk and waited for the LED to go on solidly. Then I waited a bit more looking at the Wifi Analyser on my phone to see if the new SSID appeared. Needless to say - it doesn't. The AP seems to appear - but thats as far as this whole thing goes

The Cap Interface now looks like: (attached file - Cap-Interface.JPG)

Clearly I am doing something (a lot of things) wrong

Config - hopefully thats all of it
