    My 24pt 1G TPLink Omada switch had some nasty loud fans so i switched them out for Noctua fans that are much quieter. I run Omada gear at home because i find it so much more reliable than generic consumer grade equipment.

    Great to see you've got the 3 in 1 router/controller. I'm thinking about picking it up as my first step into the Omada network. I've seen reviews about it that say it lacks dedicated switch functionalities (setting up a port to use a specific VLAN for example), though.. I'm interested to see your observations.
    Edit: I choose the er707-m2 with the sg2210p

    Nice! I run the OC200 + ER605 + TL-SG2218 +SG2008S+ 3X AX1800 WAPs. Good setup, but I like the combining of the SDN/Router and you are right...Not a fan of just 1Gb LAN. So yeah, good stuff! Nice review man. I'll keep this stack in mind. Might have to convince my wife we need it.... :)

  • @weisstdudochnicht1

    I run the TL-SG3210XHP-M2 (fans are really noisy - I replaced the original fans with 40mm Noctua fans and noise and thermals are both great now) with 2x EAP670. Omada Controller runs on a HP T620+ (Proxmox) and also OPNSense and PiHole. OPNSense is a better firewall and PiHole is a nice convenience function.
    Great Wi-Fi Speed and 2.5 Gbit backbone and my TrueNAS Scale Server and Workstation are connected via 10Gbit SFP+.

    I've been eying that switch as of late to upgrade my existing TP-Link switch. I do agree it's a little steep, and should be in that $350-$380 range. Which would make it $100/+ less than the Ubiquiti equivalent. I will be keeping my EAP653, no need to upgrade that as it fits my needs perfectly. Now if that ER7212PC had 2.5gb and POE++ at the $400 price point, take my money!

    • @andy-v

    Real shame the 3 in 1 thingy doesn't have 2.5Gbe, that I could really see it as a long term investment, given how many devices are getting 2.5Gbe, potential but fell short! And I too would probably have concerns about the CPU.
    Think I'll stick with my new Aliexpress Intel N100 device that has 2.5Gbe running PFSense, Zyxel XGS1250-12 switch, that has 3x RJ45 10Gbe multi speed, 1 SFP+ 10Gbe and 8x 1Gbe, mainly bought it so I will have a 10Gbe connection to my NAS for video editing, plus thinking a little future proofing with 2 extra available 10Gbe once I'm 10G on the NAS and PC, was a good deal at $190, open box never been used on ebay. I want to get a POE+ switch for IP cameras and an AP, possibly a Netgear GS108LP/PP or TP-Link TL-SG108PE, just trying to find a bargain on ebay really so flexible on what POE switch I'll go for, and looking for an AC Unify or Omada AP.
    I do like what TP-Link are doing generally though of late. Love your content too, proper average man perspective, "Do I need it? Not really. Do I want it? Yes", like most of us home networkers/home labers.

    POE - Remember original design intent of wired LAN was conceived to deliver a massive 10 GB/s over balanced line twisted pair wiring that was just a bit above POTS (plain old telephone) systems. The innovation in cheap integrated circuit operational amplifiers enabled the core tech to push the foundation of today’s LAN out to market. This core technology made it possible to deploy hard wired LAN circuits over hundreds if not thousands of feet based on an inherent noise immune twisted pair terminated with tristate differential amplifiers. Signal current was in the microamps therefore wire size (and terminating connectors) were made as small as possible to reduce cost. Fast forward to the last decade plus and with the hassle of running AC power to the far corners that LAN devices were popping up in (no longer equipment rooms with gobs of power on hand) and progress was quickly being held back because of the cost of running power circuits (multiples of the cost for the LAN wiring). The urge to inject DC power (signal is not DC so the two are easily separated) for the far end LAN connect device became to great and almost overnight LAN circuits were hijacked for something they were never conceived of doing - become power circuits. This originally flew under the RADAR of the laws of electrical power safety because the voltages involved did not trigger electrical safety codes. A few years forward and the very low power LAN devices have matured into power demanding super users. So here we are, serious power consuming LAN connected devices with consumers demanding POE with no understanding of the implications of ohm’s law (heating effect on a wire carrying electrical current is determined by the current squared multiplied by the wire resistance). We are now back into the domain of electrical safety codes that are constructed to prevent wires from overheating and starting fires - it is physics, not ignorant codes) now taking prime design criteria, not signal quality. New ball game. Think exploding batteries in consumer devices on airlines over the ocean, e-bikes starting fires and burning down multistory buildings, $100K+ EV’s turning into fireballs - now consumers are demanding that this costly tech be made safe.

    Thanks again, super helpful. So it seems like with my 14 in Macbook Pro M1 Max I only have 6 2x2? And couldnt even really take advantage of a 2.4gb wifi speed? So at best I would see a small increase when accessing video files on my LAN via wifi... but would need a faster wifi client to get much higher speeds?

    I had the full Omada setup with the ER605. Er605 is quite unstable and has very limited routing combinations. Not mentioning how it looses features when adopted by the controller. Lame software development from TP-Link. I kept all Omada devices except the ER605, switching it for a OPNSense appliance. Oh boy. Now I can do anything I need!

    I tried Omada when it appeared to be a alternate to unifi. It’s not. At least not yet. I it was totally unstable. Access points would disappear, performance was crap, everything just was a pain. The hardware specs are nice but software wise they have a ways to go before they get to unifi level. I switched to unifi and haven’t looked back. It’s been rock solid. Zero downtime.

    The only issue I have found is that when trying to use PPSK to limit the amount of SSID broadcasts to a larger amount of "networks", is that WiFi 6 it seems doesn't support PPSK? Or at least the option goes away if you toggle on 6.0Ghz when setting up a wireless network. I have 5 networks and I do not want all of that SSID interference so I utilize PPSK, but I have to dumb down my WiFi to 2.4 and 5.0 only in order to use that feature. Not a huge deal, just an observation. Wonder why 6.0Ghz doesn't support PPSK on the Omada line?

    you need the ER707-m2 (2.5Gb Multi WAN router) or ER8411 (10Gbe router) to maximize ISP throughput, The 7212 is only 1Gbe. The only difference to the 605 is integrated omada SDN & POe+ on the 7212 but it has slower throughput

Utilising the 605 at the moment with 4 Netgear WAX630's that have a 2.5Gbe uplink in MESH. The system maxes out at 915Mbps up and down in LOADBALANCING mode which was obviously bottlenecked. Two days ago I purchased the ER8411 (2.2Ghz quad core CPU/4GB RAM, 10Gbe/1Gbe WAN/LAN VPN router). Yet to connect this but saw this on SPX Labs and told myself that is what I need. I need to buy a switch to go with it but I am stuck between chhosing T1700X-16TS Passive or SX3206 Poe++. I will then set up my first rackmount system.
