I have two GS308E switches connected to a router. PC's Connected to one cannot see the other
I have two GS308E switches that I have connected to my Linksys router model EA7250. I used port 1 on both of the GS306E and port 2 and port 3 on the Linksys router. I expected that computers connec...
These switches are pure L2, and don't care about subnets or IP addresses - except for the configuration access. The Plus switch Web UI is reachable within the same IP subnet for sure, but might require full IP MTU frames, because this very basic and simple stack does not support Path MTU Discovery. Access over any kind of VPN does commonly reduce the MTU.
None of this does explain why the devices connected to either switch can not "see" each other. I expect both LAN ports on your router are transparent L2 ports, and there are neither VLANs nor VLANs configured on the two switches. Or are all tests you do limited to the two switch IP addresses and always using ZeroTier only?
