I’ve seen a few other posts on this, but nothing very definitive.
I have a setup that includes two Amps; both are wired - one directly to my core switch, and one to a switch in my bedroom which is in turn connected to the core switch. Both are using different cable types, and I’ve swapped them out to known working cables to help eliminate that (they tested fine and connected at 2.5GbE for other devices with no errors). Right now, they are on my old switch but I’m moving from a MikroTik setup over to a Ubiquiti setup. I don’t use STP on the MikroTik - but the Ubiquiti use STP to prevent loops in the logical topology (I know I can turn it off, I’d like to not do so).
The “Disable WiFi” option is greyed out for both of the Amps. I can see link lights on the back of each Amp (flickering as data comes in/out); the switches report a 100 full-duplex connection. Oddly, I don’t see DHCP via the wired interface for them at all - it’s strange, it’s as if they are connected physically, but the port isn’t being used. When they are wired in on my Ubiquiti setup, it seems to be causing loops in the network.
I’d like to disable WiFi on all but one of my setup (I only have two Sonos units that aren’t wired via Ethernet) to eliminate loops. I keep most things wired when possible, as it’s an RF unfriendly environment (dense city apartment, lots of WiFi going on around here).
I also have two Fives in a stereo pair, which are wired - and I was able to disable WiFi on those (although, it does seem to turn back on at some points… maybe when it upgrades?).
Does anyone have ideas/advice on what I’m doing wrong here?
Will that option be greyed out if they are serving the other wireless units?
