So I "upgraded" my home networking to an all "Omada" setup and it sucks ass.

Constantly getting drops both on wired and wireless Internets.

ALL hooked into a UPS too.

All firmware is latest too. Replaced the router and switch already and did not fix it.

Never had such issues before with a network setup.

I am using the old cabling too, its cat6 so don't need to replace it.

Setup
OC200 Hardware Controller
605 Router
TL-SG2210MP Switch
3x EAP615 Wifi AP

Have you tried adjusting power and channels. Also set a minimum RSI number to help make clients roam to new APs and now hang around.

Wow, strange. I've heard really good things about this system, like on par with the ubiquiti stuff. I think you simply might have gotten a dud or don't have it set up correctly.

The other thing that could have happened as I've seen it before, is that the isp just happened to start having problems when you changed to this system. Plug in direct to cable modem/isp equipment and see if you still have the wired issues. If so, isp issue, not yours. (y)

I only use TPLink APs, but, with their Omada controller they've been rock solid for me for over a decade.

I'll do you one better (I think). I struggled with a shitty Amped Wireless Router for a long time before I got frustrated and threw the damn thing in the trash. The last straw was a firmware update that introduced a new 'feature' to schedule reboots.

Have you tried older firmware? Perhaps try to isolate the issue by running just one AP and testing how often the drops occur
