Cannot discover GS108T

Hi

My GS108Tv2 switch was working ok. Then I performed a factory reset (because of various problems). I set my local PC address to 192.168.0.1 and I have only that PC connected to the switch. I have power cycled the switch. The switch responds to a ping at 192.168.0.239 but SmartControlCenter will not 'Discover' the switch. No switches are found. I am running SmartControlCenter 1.1.3.2.

How can I fix this please?

  • I think this was fixed by enabling SmartControlCenterManager in Windows Firewall.
  • Another solution is to disable the software firewall/anti-virus installed on your PC such as Norton, Eset, Vipre, etc. or create a rule to allow to run the Smart Control Center on the software firewall/anti-virus.
