      @stephenw10 that is quite possible.. And a very valid point to why not include, but also could just be a way to "sell" more injectors ;) hehehe

        While this use to be the case - it seems their new wifi 6 models, don't come with injector :(

        When I got my AC-Lite, individual units came with an injector, but the 5 pack didn't. I expect the assumption was if you're buying 5 or more, you'd be using a PoE switch, which might not be the case with a single unit. Then again, PoE is used in a lot of businesses, even small ones, for VoIP phones, security cameras, etc..

        Well, as long as you know and the injector is readily available...

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

          I wonder how the price compares between including the injector and selling it separately.

            @jknott I think the injector is only like 8 bucks for the wifi 6 (ax) lite model..

            Yeah the AC models come with the injectors when you buy single pack.

                There are other options for sure - while tplink is always good from a price point stand point. They wouldn't be on the top of my list as options.. Now if just dumb switch - that would be another story in such a setup they most likely fine.

                  @johnpoz yeah I've used a dumb switch of there's for years and it was fine. With pfsense though I would like to run probably 1 vlan for IOT devices at least . We have a 1600 Sq ft house with 5 people 25 devices? (7-10 IOT devices) . Probably at most 6-7 devices ever going at the same time usually less. Then for all my devices I hardwire them if I can so that's my smart TV, PS4/Nintendo switch, Laptop, HD homerun network TV tuner, we also use ooma for VOIP.

                    @bbgarnett from the limited testing I have done with old tplink switch I had that would not allow you remove vlan 1 from any port.

                    There was a way to install the v3 firmware on my v2 hardware - and that seems to have corrected that problem.

                    Does your switch allow you to remove vlan 1 from ports you want to be in another vlan - if so should work..

                        @bbgarnett that settings is all just vlan 1, its pretty much in dumb switch mode.. You have no vlans setup on that switch at all..

                        In such a mode there should be no issues with that switch..

                        I thought you were running fine after you turned off guest mode.

                        To test if your switch can do vlans "correctly" you would need to create a vlan and put a port in that vlan, and be able to remove vlan 1.

                          @johnpoz yes I am running fine with guest mode off. Also I haven't done anything yet with vlans just thought it was recommended to run IOT devices on a vlan since those devices tend to be more insecure. Again still learning everything and as of right now everything is working.

                            @bbgarnett yeah it prob better to isolate devices you do not trust in a vlan isolated from the devices you do trust, etc.

                              Maybe add a DNS resolver for it also??
