Problem with LACP after update 6.6.0 -> no connection possible
 Hello fellow Netgear users,    first of all I need to say I am very angry about Netgear. After the new cyber firmaware-update 6.6.0 several things won't work any more. Do they test their software or ...
- Oct 22, 2016Hi evan2, 
 thank you for your reply!
 My switch is a TP-SG3210. The hash setting is on "SRC IP + DEST IP" (the other option is "SRC MAC + DEST MAC"). This is the the detail info from the switch:
 Detail Info:
 Group Number: LAG1
 LAG Type: LACP
 Port Status: Enable
 Rate: Auto
 Port mirror: Disable
 Ingress Bandwidth (bps): --
 Egress Bandwidth (bps): --
 Broadcast Control (bps): --
 Multicast Control (bps): --
 UL Control (bps): --
 QoS Priority: CoS 0
 Join VLAN: 1
 Now I've seen that there is a VLAN. Right away I`ve created a VLAN 1 on the NAS. (On first try it got no internet connection. I had to enter my DNS Server in the VLAN connection.) Now it seems to work, but I`ll have a look on it for a few days so to see if it works properly.
 I'll will report to you guys if it works or not.
 Best regards
 Kalle

Hi Kalle13 ,
I can't reproduce the issue on RN214 which connect to Netgear switch GS728TPS using LACP Layer 2+3 or Layer 3+4
Could do you provide detail information? I want to reproduce the issue.
Could do you tell me which Hash Type you are using on LACP mode? and what is your Power timer setting?
What switch are you using?

VLAN 1 is often the main (default) network. I suspect the switch is leaving the VLAN tag in the ethernet packet. There should be a way to tell the switch to disable the tagging (so the switch will add VLAN tags on the incoming packets, and remove it on outgoing packets). Or just leave it, since it now is working. - Kalle13Oct 22, 2016TutorHi StephenB, I think removing the tag is possible but I can`t delete the VLAN creation on the NAS. Every time I want to delete it I`ll get a cryptic error message and nothing happen. I just leave it that way. Never change a running system ;) It is curious that it went well before the 6.6.0 update. Like I said before I changed nothing. Not on the switch nor on the NAS. Before the update the NAS proberbly ignored the VLAN tag. Best regards Kalle - StephenBOct 22, 2016Guru - Experienced User
