Connection issues in GS324TP

Hi all,

I have a GS324TP model which is causing me a terrible headache.

 

Connecting devices through the switch it goes really slow. I went to the simple case of a PC, a switch and a router.

 

If i connect my PC directly to the router, everything goes fine. But if i connect my PC to the switch and the switch to the router, it goes really  slow. But not only internet, but also intranet.

 

Any browser sends the ERR_CONNECTION_RESET error and, of course, i cannot do any internet test speed either.

 

I reset the switch as well (just confirming the switch was the problem) and everything continues in the same way.

 

Now, I disconnected it until i got any answer....

 

If you could help, it would be appreciated.

    Have you tried different switch ports for both connections?

     

    Any chance it is cabling?

      I didn't try different switch ports, but cabling cannot be, because i used same cables to connect directly to the router. And same cables worked.

       

      Is there any way to see logs in switch?

    It is a smart switch, so you can see port status, etc.

     

    You might want to revew the manual:
