308t switch crashes daily, after 35 minutes when attached to Orbi Satellite
Looking to attach NAS near a PC which will be using a majority of the storage. I use 308T because I can link aggregate. (308E does not). Problem: 308T crashes (loses all connectivity) after about...
Does not look good - I would suggest to look into getting a warranty replacement, depending on the market from your retailer or via Netgear https.//my.netgear.com/
Not sure why diagram didn't show in initial post. In case this one doesn't show, it's:
<internet> ORBI RBR <wifi> ORBI RBS (Satellite) <CAT6> GS308T
The Switch is then connected to both PC and (using LAG) to network attached storage device.
Note that merely connecting the GS308T to the Orbi satellite, and nothing else attached to the switch, the switch will crash in 35 minutes -- no need to attach PC or NAS.
Don't panic about the in-line images - these are under mandatory moderation. Better approach than reposting would be adding a copy an additional attachment.
Is the switch management IP no longer pingable over the Orbi WiFi and mesh, and no longer pingable from the direct connected NAS, and no longer pingable from a computer connected to the switch?
Correct, switch is no longer pingable from anywhere.
Ran another test overnight, with 308T directly connected to main Orbi RBR: Nothing else connected to the switch. It was pingable for 11 hours then "Unreachable". (I use basic 1sec ping)
I suspect the 308T is bad?
