GS724TPV2 randomly losing access to web interface
Hello Netgear community, We have a strange issue with our GS724TPV2 switches. We recently upgraded our switches to V2 and made some changes including enabling loop protection and storm controls....
- Jul 08, 2024
Resolved by installing this firmware update: GS724TPv2 / GS724TPP Firmware Version 2.0.8.17 - NETGEAR Support
Bug fix:
- Fixes an issue that the system may freeze when accessing device migrates frequently from port to port. For example, wireless client roaming from one wireless AP to another AP that are connected to different ports on the same switch.
Tad annoying how Netgear support basically said it was my setup and/or the way I patched my switches. One year of 30+ switches randomly locking up is not fun!
Anyway hope this helps someone.

Thank you! Will try it for sure. Since my reply, i was forced to revert back to my old setup as the disconnecting was really annoying. I will install the update and see if it works. Since it works for you, I hope it does to for me. Anyway, again, thank you for taking the time to post the possible solution in this old thread!!
