Can't find switch after reset
Hi,
I have 3 Netgear AV Switches and I have reset all 3 with the reset button on the front. I have found 2 via the OOB socket on 192.168.0.239 and re-configured them but the third can't not be found on the 239 address or via a search with the Netgear Discovery tool either plugged into the OOB socket or Port 1.
To confirm I only have my computer plugged directly into the switch and I have set the computer to a static IP of 192.168.0.201 and a gateway of 192.168.0.1 and I can't find the switch either via the OOB Port or Port 1.
It is the same cable I used to find the other 2 switches.

Problem solved after leaving the switch for 10 mins and came back to it, it now has reset to 239.
