Welcome to the community! :)
Let us try to perform the steps below:
1. Disconnect the GS748TS from your existing network and make sure its turned on. Get a straightened paper clip.
2. Insert the paper clip to the factory defaults hole then press and hold the factory reset button inside it for 30 seconds.
3. After 30 seconds, turn off the GS748TS while you still continue to press and hold the factory reset button. Wait for 5 seconds.
4. After 5 seconds, turn on the GS748TS while you still continue to press and hold the factory reset button. Wait for another 5 seconds.
5. After 5 seconds, release the paper clip from the factory reset button. Check if the GS748TS will boot up properly.
6. If the GS748TS booted up properly, connect a PC directly to any LAN port of it. Then, set a static IP address like 192.168.0.210 on the PC.
7. Check if you can get replies when you ping the default IP Address of the GS748TS which is 192.168.0.239.
9. If you get replies, open a web browser and try to access the web-GUI of the GS748TS.
