Hi MarkusBuchmayr,
Thank you for posting here, and sorry for your issue. Be sure we'll solve it.
Yes, M4300 series switches support 8 switches per stack, and up to 16 ports 10G or 40G per switch in stacking mode. In your case, not sure what's wrong but this may be config issue, or some ports configured in Stack mode but running in Ethernet mode.
It will be fastidious here to troubleshoot so please export the tech-support file out of your stack (Maintenance/Export/HTTP File Export/tech support in the dropdown menu list) and send it to us by email to ProAVDesign@netgear.com with a link to this post.
One of our ProAV SEs will review the config and logs in the tech support file before contacting you. No worries, sometimes modules or cabling or stack config may lead to issues but easy to detect in TS file and we'll fix it with you.
Once resolved we'll update this thread here on the Community.
Regards,
