Is anyone using the newer USIP router?
This device isn’t as easy as it seems to configure. I needed it in a desperate way yesterday when my ER4 died after 4 great years of service. Unfortunately, you cannot use the Edgerouter backup to load this device, and you cannot configure it via a web browser, it is only configurable through the UISP app with Bluetooth and online UNMS after it has been adopted.
- Connected with phone
- I did a factory reset on this router
- Added the static IP, gateway and DNS for internet connectivity
- Change the IP address and subnet for VLAN1 to match my network
- Setup a DHCP server to match my IP and subnet for VLAN1 - At this, I should have been able to see network traffic, DHCP leases, but instead nothing happened, even my desktop on site wouldn’t get an IP.
- Switch0 checked to see what ports where assigned to Switch0, all by default except port 1 (internet) and 9 (SFP)
- Added new VLANx to Switch0, created DHCP server for VLANx, nothing connected, nor did I see any of my equipment on VLANx
- Removed VLANx from Switch0, removed port 2 from Switch0, added VLANx to port 2, this also trunked the VLAN to this port, again, was not able to see any equipment on VLANx
- Tried many different ways to make this work, but could not get anything to work, if I gave my PC a static, I could browse the web
- Solution removed the UISP router, found an Edgepoint 6 I used as an outdoor switch awhile back, loaded my config from my dead ER4 put it in operation, system online, but limited to the capabilities of the EP6.
- I have one UISP switch and will be adding another soon, these are very simple to configure, and seem pretty fast.
My goal is to use the UISP router, I know that the next firmware release should have a web interface, it is available now on EA, but it is not supported by UNMS/CRM at this time.
If anyone has any pointers to properly configure this thing let me know
