Welcome to our community! :)

Good day
The LED lights works normaly. All the windows machines (windows 98, XP, 7 and 10 machines) and mobile phones (connecting through a wi-fi router) still works 100%.
I see the STP/RSTP is enabled and in the RSTP option is the "fast link opteration status" disabled and the point to point operational status is enabled.
The last part "Also if the flow control is enabled? If yes, kindly disable the flow control. Go to Switching > Ports > Port Configuration" is disabled.
It is only our Unix sco server that stops working precisely 10h00 our time every day.
The windows machines connect with telnet to the Unix server.
This is mindbogling to our ISP. They have few clients running netgears switched without any problems. The only thing different is that we use a Unix machine on the network too.
Kind regards
