VLAN settings keep changing all the time
I have 2*GC110P and 1*GC110 connected to my Insight Premium account. Yesterday I added 2 new WIFI AP's that have a specific VLAN for SSID Guest and IoT:VLAN33 (Guest) and VLAN44(IoT). It sounds s...
Does the Insight CLOUD Portal magically hide or suppress the untagged VLAN 1 (for the PVID), too? Guess this is the one you use for simplicity for providing the Internet uplink for the cloud access.
- As described Insight indeed lost connection. And yes that was because Vlan1 was no longer selected for the "uplink port"

Still unclear to me why your switch does abandon the untagged network when adding two tagged VLAN ports.
Indeed the uplink port is not configurable: that is why I put it in between quotes in my original mail, so " Uplink port" is shorthand for "the port that is connected to my router, that is connected to the internet".
Must admit that at first I of course doubted myself ("did I make a mistake when saving the settings"). So I started making sure to check and double-check all the settings before pressing save. And still saw strange behavior. And when it happened even after a " factory reset" I am quite sure: this is not me. And I already knew not to mix setting from App and setting from web because of this.
Actually, now that everything is working I am very reluctant to make more changes. Especially as it appears you can lock yourself out: on the GC110 a factory reset can only be performed using the web interface.....
