    @johnpoz:

    "If i connect to Wireless SSID2, I get the ICMPv6 router advertisements from lan."

    And what happens when you connect to SSID3?  Are you also seeing lan RAs?

    According to the main site for that eap245 it states
    "Supports management VLAN for an enhanced network management"

    Yes, I could do what Derelict proposes, and transform all my untagged lan traffic in tagged traffic. And add a management vlan for the ap.
    But that would be a lot of work, and I'm not even sure if it would work. Maybe it sends ICMPv6 packets across tagged lans as well…

    @johnpoz:

    Are you doing anything with the captive portal of the AP?  Curious if that might have something to do with it??  Are you running the firmware I show on their site? EAP245(US)_V1_161116  says it has fixed some bugs ;)

    The CP is not active on the AP, and I updated the FW yesterday because I thought the same :)

      See my last post - quote from their UG… This AP just looks broken when it comes to tags entering the AP from the wired network..

        Ok… I throw it in the trash. Any suggestions on AP that supports VLANs and is around 100€?

          I am huge fan of the unifi AP.. Not sure about cost in euro.. But the uap-ac-lite model runs 80$ USD while the pro is $130..

          https://www.ubnt.com/unifi/unifi-ac/

          I have 3 of them in my house, the Pro, the LR and the lite…. They support vlans, I read on their forums that management vlan is coming if recall.  But currently the management IP of the AP has to be untagged..  I run multiple vlans on them and have never seen any bleed over that is for sure ;)

          edit:
          When I get home I will fire up my laptop to be sure!!

          But I know my wifi devices work for ipv6 so I have to assume they are getting the correct RA ;)

            Probably either Ubiquiti or, maybe, Xclaim if you want NIB. Though the Xclaim simultaneous dual-band AC units get you into the price points of "real" Ruckus APs used. Lots of things available on eBay - at least here in the US.

              Thank you both. I don't like that the ubiquiti don't have a web interface, and that I have to download a management software.

              I bought a D-Link DAP-2610.

                Dude your going to have more than 1 right… Why would you not control it from the controller software.. Where do you think you get all the bells and whistles from..

                Does that even support vlans??  I don't see it listed on the specs...  And says wave 2... BS its not just look at the specs.. Dude you can manage the unifi from your phone if you wont, you don't have to run the controller software..

                  No, just that one.

                  Yes, I checked the manual a few hundred times before buying :)

                    It's not that big of a problem really, those packets do no harm. It's just traffic that should not be there…

                    I saw this problem years before I started using pfSense.  I used to use openSUSE for my firewall/router.  I was planning on setting up a guest WiFi, when I ran into that problem.

                    What specific tp-link device do you have - make and model.. And how do you have it all connected together?  What configs do you have on its ports for vlans and tags?

                    I have the TP-Link TL-WA901ND.

                    PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
                    i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel 1 Gb Ethernet ports.
                    UniFi AC-Lite access point

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

                      Just for the record: with the D-Link AP everything works as expected.
                      Never again TP-Link.
