Can't access GS108E switch on Windows 10
After upgrading to windows 10 I can't access my GS108E switch. Get "A fault occurred contacting the server. Fault message is:HTTP request error". Any idea what is the problem?

I reset the switch to factory defaults & it now works in WIN10. Wish I could label each port so I know whats connected to it. It's a bummer not knowing what I connected to all 8 ports. I should be allowed to label each port with a name. Can that be done? Thanks for your help. Close the case.

Hi rstahl02,
Just to clarify, the GS108Ev2 is a switch not a router. You mentioned that you got it working on one Windows 10 PC of yours. With regard to that, do you have any software firewall or anti-virus enabled on your Dell XPS15 (or other Windows 10 PC)? If ever there is, kindly try to disable it then check if the GS108Ev2 will be detected by the ProSAFE Plus Configuration Utility.

You misunderstood. WIN10 worked on only one, not your utility (Did not try utility on them before I removed it.). IT DOES NOT WORK ON MY WIN10, worked on WIN7. Strange. I disabled ESET before but it did not help. I ask again, is there another way to access the switch other then your utility???
