GS108E Not able to reset defaults

Hi kukeser,

Welcome to the community! :) 

Kindly try the steps below:

1. Disconnect the GS108Ev3 switch from your existing network and make sure its turned on.  Get a straightened paper clip.

2. Insert the paper clip to the factory defaults hole.  Then, press and hold the factory reset button inside it for 30 seconds.

3. After 30 seconds, turn off the GS108Ev3 switch while you still continue to press and hold the factory reset button.  Wait for 5 seconds.

4. After 5 seconds, turn on the GS108Ev3 switch while you still continue to press and hold the factory reset button.  Wait for another 5 seconds.

5. After 5 seconds, release the paper clip from the factory reset button.  Check if the GS108Ev3 switch will boot up properly.

6. If ever the GS108Ev3 switch booted up, connect a PC/laptop directly to a LAN port.

7. Assign a static IP address of 192.168.0.210 to the PC.

8. Open a browser such as Chrome or Firefox.  At the address bar, type 192.168.0.239 then press Enter.  Login to the web-GUI using 'admin' and 'password' as the username and password respectively without the quotation marks.  

Let us know the result.
