GS305E
I just purchased two switches GS305E and GS308E. I cannot get either of them to be found on my network. I have the Netgear insight app on my iPhone and I am able to register both devices through ...
Resetting did not work. I got the other switch to be recognized and decided to send the GS305E back. Thanks for all your help and suggestions. I appreciate the help.
Thanks for the quick reply. I am not able to get to the switch's ip address. The connection times out. I am able to access other websites though. This is very frustrating!
Do I need to have a router between the gateway and the switch?
No, I'd do a factory reset on the switch. Confirm the default managagement IP address of the switch from the installation guide or user manual. Set a static IP adderss on your PC to match subnet as what is default on the switch... with the last octet set to say .49 on your pc and subnet mask should be same as switch default mask. Then you should be able to access the switches management page then get it configured for your main network and subnet.
