Can't get to GSS116E Switch after backhauling Google Nest Wifi Pro Setup

I recently connected my Google Nest WiFi Plus setup via a backhaul wiring and everything seems to be working correctly.

 

However, I no longer have access to the GSS116E switch admin panel. It shows an IP address of 192.168.0.239, and when I click the "Admin Page" button on the NETGEAR Discovery Tool, I just get page not found.

 

I'd like to go in and make sure I've made the correct settings for the network just to be safe. Does anyone know of a way into the switch? The tool clearly sees it, maybe I just need to add something to the URL?

 

Thank you!

 

 

 

  • Nevermind, figured out that if you unplug the switch for a minute and plug it back in it gets a new IP address from the new network. Did another scan and found it and was able to get back in. Thanks!
