AP Controller offline

Product Discussion Peplink Balance
1

Hi,

I have a Balance 305 and a PLSW E333 Managed Switch.
I created several VLANs and set up my 7 AP 300M PepWaves connected to the Balance by Ap Controller, but when I connect PepWave to the Switch, they appear offline, even though the VLANs work, and I can not manage them anymore.

Thanks

Hi almirjr,

only to be shure… the VLANs are also created on the Switch?

Hi Att,
are the VLANs tagged or untagged on the switch?

Hi,

so you have different VLAN configurations for the APs. Why do you do that?

If you use tagged VLANs, then a device has to send this tag for the access in the VLAN.
I think the problem is, that the AP can not find home to the AP-controller because of the VLAN settings.
You can give it a try and enable also the default VLAN 1 (untagged) to the APs

We are a school. In some places it concerns a vlan and in other places other vlans.
I will try it.
