Hi coyote2,
Kindly try the steps below:
1. Disconnect the GS108Tv2 from the existing network. The GS108Tv2 will default back to its IP address which is 192.168.0.239.
2. Connect a PC/laptop to a LAN port of the GS108Tv2.
3. Set a static IP address of 192.168.0.210 on the PC/laptop.
4. Open a browser like Google Chrome or Firefox then at the address bar, type 192.168.0.239 then press Enter. Login to the user interface of switch. Enter "admin" as the username and "password" as the password.
5. Click System > Management > IP Configuration.
6. On the IP Configuration page, select Static IP address then enter 192.168.1.239 in the field provided as well as the corresponding subnet mask and default gateway then click Apply.
7. Connect the GS108Tv2 back to your existing network and set the PC/laptop to Obtain an IP address automatically.
To test the connectivity, connect a PC/laptop directly to the GS108Tv2. Open command prompt on the PC/laptop, then ping 192.168.1.239 which is the static IP address set on the GS108Tv2 and ping the IP address of the router. You should be able to get replies.
Let us know the results.

I tried it.
I knew how to do #2 because I already had a static IP on the PC. I changed it to 192.168.1.239 (I left the subnet mask and default gateway as 255.255.255.0 and 192.168.1.1 [the later is my router]; Windows gave me some sort of warning about the subnet, but I clicked OK).
But directly connected the switch, I can neither get ping replies nor reach 192.168.1.239 in my browser, even after restoring the PC's static IP to 192.168.1.45 and rebooting the PC.
