New GS308 switch will not give internet and assigns a weird ip. is this for internet or just network
The new GS308 switch will not give internet access and assigns a weird IP address.
Is this for internet or just network PC?
The purpose of the switch is to give more ports to connect more devices to the Internet right?
I connected a new GS308 from working NETGEAR WiFi router to switch then the device to the switch and there is no internet.
I cannot see the switch connected to the network and the switch gives out a weird IP address to the device.
There are no labels on the ports of the switch so I guess I can use any port to connect to the switch (I tried the 1st port).
Am I connecting it wrong?
My set up works fine without the switch.
