TP-LINK TL-SG108E VLAN configuration issue
-
@mitch-rapp Deco is connected to TL-SG108E, but in a different port than the port we configured, right?!
I asked you to test the WIFI connectivity from TL_AX6600... Did you test that?
Please, test it... -
@mcury
No internet connection.
Also, the IP address cannot be set in Deco AP mode,
So I’m trying the VLAN setting on Deco.
Vlan ID = 28
VLAN priority. = ? -
The wifi network where Alexa is connected to, is that working?
DHCP, is it disabled in the TL-AX6600?
Is TL-AX6600 configured in AP mode? -
@mcury
I can set the AX6600 to AP mode, and it will deactivate DHCP server, and static IP.
I can leave it in Router mode and set the IP but can't disable DHCP.I've tried both ways and neither seem to be working.

Set it to AP mode, then reboot it. Cable coming from TL-SG108E must be connected to a LAN port of the AP (connect it to the LAN1, not WAN/LAN).
After that, try to connect a device to it and test if internet is working in that device.

@mcury
Oh! The AX6600 just showed up in the ARP table! IP & MAC address -

@mitch-rapp Ok, but please, test the WIFI connectivity.... You now should be able to access the Internet from the TL-AX6600 WIFI network.
Its an essential step that you test it before we proceed... -
@mcury
I will, I promise, one minute. I just put it into AP mode and rebooted. Going to see if I have connectivity when it reboots. -
@mcury
Ok, it rebooted, VLAN28 gave out 20 leases, but the Deco app says the AX6600 is offline, no internet. -
@mcury
Deco RED light - no connection- light is on. No Alexa connectivity. No phone connectivity. -

Deco app will show it offline, because the WAN interface is disconnected, you configured in AP mode...
So, forget Deco app.
Check the internet by connecting a device to the WIFI network, confirm if its getting an IP from pfsense DHCP, then test if that device has internet connectivity. -

No Alexa connectivity. No phone connectivity.
Can you ping 10.28.28.1 from the phone?
-
@mcury
my browser keeps blocking me from pinging it from my phone. Chrome, Safari, Firefox. all same -
@mitch-rapp you are using a browser to ping?
connect a laptop to that wifi network, you can also plug a cable from the laptop to TL-AX6600 LAN2 port to test.. and ping from there, ok? -
@mcury ok one sec. The only port left is the WAN port.

We are doing things in little steps, we are working with LAN1 port only so far...
Disconnect everything else from TL-AX6600... Leave LAN1 connected to the TL-SG108E, then, connect the laptop to the LAN2 port... -
@mcury
ok, one second -
@mcury
Wait, There are only 2 ports on the Deco, the bottom one which I assume is WAN and the top which I assume is LAN. If I disconnect the LAN port and plug my laptop in then how will I ping 10.28.28.1?
