A configuration of TP-Link Omada devices to offer wireless connections to different countries.

Note that this configuration is currently non-functional due to an old version of OpenVPN software in the TP-Link routers.

Requirements

My basic requirements were (while living in the UK)

• Have local internet access for all the day-to-day things (including IOT)
• Have a VPN back to the USA for some "geo-constrained" web sites
• Have a VPN back to New Zealand for some specific work related items

So the overall schematic was this...



Hardware and software versions

Device	Hardware version	Software version
EAP225	v3.0	5.1.0
EAP230-Wall	v1.0	3.1.1
TL-SG2210P	v5.0	5.0.6
ER7206	v1.0	1.3.0
OC200	1.0	1.26.3

This means 3 Wi-Fi SSIDS (on the same channels), the UK SSID is attached to the untagged LAN, while USA and New Zealand go to VLANS




VLANs

First we create the VLAN, in this case for USA I use VLAN tag 10



Note that each VLAN needs its own IP interface and I also provide a set of IP addresses. Each of the VLANs (USA and NewZealand) need different VLAN ids and IP address ranges.




VPNs

Now we need to create an OpenVPN client for each VLAN. I use VyprVPN but any service provider should work.



Make sure that the only the Local Network (VLAN) for this destination is selected




SSIDs

Finally, create WiFi SSID for wach destination and make sure that it is 'attached' to the VLAN



Thats all there is to it... Switching between Wifi networks will make your device appear in different locations
