GS105Ev2 - Unable to access switch using a browser
For nearly 10 years I'm a happy user of my GS105Ev2. Now I want to log into the UI again, but (of course) did not remember any credentials. I've reset the switch by pushing the reset button with a pa...
What does the product label show - probably GS105E-2A1NAS - certainly the packaging did... ?
Which firmware version the Netgear Switch Discovery Tool (NSDT) or the legacyProSAFE Plus Configuration Utility (v2.7.8 is still available for Windows as an .exe installer, so be warned) on Netgear GS105Ev2 Downloads? My uneducated guess is it will show v5.4.0.3. Note: 1.6.0.11 is the last ever released firmware for this GS105Ev2.
Last: Netgear -never- used http basic auth for their switches!
Long story short: All explained here before.

A couple things you could try/check.
1. My GS108 had the default password on the label on the back of it. Maybe your default isn't password
2. I've seen people not fully reset the device. Push and hold reset while powered on for up to 30 seconds. I know it sounds stupid and its along the lines of "is it plugged in?" but its still worth checking
3. have you tried a different browser?
4. Make sure you're not using any password managers. I've seen them overwrite login/password info
Hi Plemans,
Thanks for your time.
Here my reply:
1. The label says:
password: password
2. I had done reset the device while it was turned on. I did it again, but now for 30 seconds. The result was the same.
3. I've tried with Firefox and Safari.
4. I'm sure the password manager is not interfering.
