ProSafe GSM7328Sv2 not booting
Hi all.
So I've had a GSM7328Sv2 for a while now and kinda run into an issue with the switch itself.
I recently replaced my router that uses a different LAN range and I've not been able to access the switch's web interface.
Kinda did a stupid by pressing the reset button for 30 seconds and now the system itself doesn't boot.
Power LED remains orange.
Fan LED is lit
M1/2 LED's are lit
None of the ports light up.
Can anyone help?
I currently don't have access to a console cable.

Apologies for the delay.
I've managed to get my hands on a serial cable and it turns out that both the primary and backup firmware images are corrupt and non-bootable.

Re: ProSafe GSM7328Sv2 not booting
I did load the operational code package onto the switch.
It tried booting the code, rebooted again and I'm getting no boot code from the switch itself.
I'm unable to return the switch as I'm not the original purchaser.
Any help would be brilliant.

Re: ProSafe GSM7328Sv2 not booting
Note: You'll be pressing the Factory default button for a total of 90 seconds.
1. While the switch is on (powered), push and hold the Factory default button for 30 seconds.
2. Turn off the switch, continue to hold the Factory default button for another 30 seconds.
3. Turn on the switch, still holding the Factory default button do this for 30 seconds more.
4. Release the Factory default button, let the switch boot by itself.
5. After about 2-5 minutes, see if you can access the switches interface.

Erm.
This switch doesn't have that button, only a reset button on the front.

Re: ProSafe GSM7328Sv2 not booting
Hi Secretdook,
As I have read this thread, it seems that your GSM7328Sv2 really turns out to be faulty. Since getting a replacement from Netgear is not possible, I recommend getting a GSM7328Sv2 switch. Kindly check out the authorized resellers of Netgear on this link below where you could possibly purchase a new GSM7328Sv2 switch:
