GS108E turn off EEE?

Hi,

 

Is it possible to completely turn off the EEE (Energy Efficiency Settings) on the GS108E Switch?\

 

I have situation where the unmanaged switch is going to sleep and disconnecting from part of the network.

  • Hi xsv,

     

    Welcome to the community! :) 

     

    As I have research about your concern, there is no option to turn off EEE (Energy Efficiency Settings) on the GS108E switch.  As reference, kindly read page 61 of the Gigabit Web Managed (Plus) Switches user manual here  where it says:  "Power saving options are available only on these Unmanaged Plus Switch models GS105Ev2, GS105PE, GS116Ev2, JGS516PE, JGS524Ev2, and JGS524PE."
