Hi Haree2010,

 

Welcome to the NETGEAR Community! 🙂

 

There was indeed a fix related to multicast control packets on firmware version 6.2.0.24.

 

Were you able to update to the latest version 6.2.0.36 and did it help with the issue you reported?

 


Have a lovely day,

Hi Renna,

 

Thank you for your reply. It's good to hear that there was a fix in the latest firmware. I did not update the firmware as the switch also developed an issue with the port LEDs. Netgear agreed to send a replacement. I will check and update the firmware on the new switch and will post the results here.

 

Thanks!
