Peplink B One + TP-Link managed switch + Pepwave Ac one mini

Dear Community,

I need some help to get my setup working.

I recently upgraded from Soho MK3 to the B One.
A TP Link managed switch is connected to the B One ( Port 1 Trunk Any)
My AC One Mini is connected to the managed switch, I have access to the web UI.
Mesh and SSIDs were setup on both B One and AP. The B One even can see the AP. Guest VLAN 10 and IOT VLAN 20.

My issue is, that whatever I configure I cannot connect to the SSIDs on the AP. As soon as I get near the AP where the handoff should happen, connection is lost and my devices (mobile phone, laptop, tablet) are not getting any ip address.

In addition, what is really strange, when a device is connected to the wifi VLAN 10 on the B One, I can also see the device on the AP in the client list but with a very strange ip address (169.x.x.x).

TP Link managed switch is configured as following:
Port 1 is connected to the B One. Default VLAN 1 has all ports as untagged.
Port 2 is connected to the One Mini AP.
VLAN 10 was added as Port 1 untagged and Port 2 tagged (PVID port 1 and 2 = VLAN 1)
VLAN 20 was added as Port 1, 3 and 4 untagged and Port 2 tagged (PVID port 1 and 2 = VLAN 1, Port 3 and 4 = VLAN 20)

I hope you can help me in my setup.
Thank you,
S.

Hi.

Please… Can you share your networks screen?

Hi, sorry an tha late response, unfortunaqtely I was out of order.

Attached some screenshots from the BOne and the Switch, I cannot figure out what I have done wrong that the AC One mini (connected to the Switch) cannot communicate with the untagged network to provide access to the Guest and IoT Network.

Untagged VLAN:

VLAN IoT:

Thank you for any support I can get!

Hi.

An IP address starting with “169” usually indicates a device is using Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA), meaning it couldn’t get an IP address from a DHCP server and assigned itself a temporary address in the 169.254.0.0/16 range. (Google)

I don’t have AP Mini, but have AP Enterprise…
Please check

VLAN of the device

VLAN of each SSID

So…
AP “VLAN TRUNK” SWITCH “VLAN TRUNK” B-ONE.

You can keep vlan 1 untag…
but… need to tag all other vlan to reach the b-one

You can keep 1 untag
But… need to tag all the others vlans
