The printer is unreachable from the AP while it is in power-saving mode.
When the printer enters power-saving mode, it may partially turn off or suspend its network interface, such as Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or the print service. During that time, the printer may not respond to ping, discovery, or print requests until it wakes up again. You could enable the U-APSD function of SSID that printers…

How do I disable a single AP from broadcasting the SSID?
1. Assign Tags to All SSIDs Each SSID should have at least one tag. This allows Nebula to determine which APs are allowed to broadcast each SSID. 2. Ensure the Target AP Has No Tags For the AP that should not broadcast WiFi: Ensure no exist tags assign to that AP. 3. Verify Tag Consistency Across the Network Make sure…

Why can't I connect to the internet after enabling the Guest Network?
This issue may be related to the Layer 2 isolation configuration, specifically the allowed MAC address settings. When a guest SSID is assigned to a specific VLAN, the allowed MAC address configured under Layer 2 isolation must match the gateway interface MAC address corresponding to that VLAN. If a different MAC address is…

Why Do Duplicate SSIDs Appear on the Client Devices?
Client devices display the same SSID as two separate entries, even though the SSID is configured as a single network. Below, we explain the reasoning and suggest recommendations: Reason for Duplicate SSIDs: To comply with standard regulations and chipset requirements for Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 Access Points, the device will…

Stations are connected to different SSIDs with NAT mode enabled, but are able to discover each other
The NAT mode of an SSID is used to assign IP addresses to devices when there is no gateway or router in the environment to provide DHCP service. However, it is not a true Layer 3 isolation mechanism and cannot fully isolate devices from each other. To prevent devices on different NAT-mode SSIDs from communicating with each…

HIDE SSID does not work on BE radio
When using WiFi 7 (802.11be) mode on the 5 or 6 GHz radio, the 'HIDE SSID' feature is not supported. This occurs due to updated IEEE 802.11be regulatory requirements and the implementation of Multi-Link Operation (MLO) standards. Therefore, this behavior is expected when the access point operates in WiFi 7 mode. How to…
