- LED pattern
The LED pattern looks like the OFFLINE, if I turn the energy down and up again, sometimes the switch comes on online.
This is what I can see in the switch console.

I can't get a pattern here... almost the switches are connected to the router, and I have 2 or 3 connected to one satellite installed also on my 0 floor
I can reach the switch web interface if I'm in 0 floor connected to router or the satellite I've here, but I got yo the 3rd floor I can't ping the Switch and i can't reach the web interface
- Ping issue
I've also in 3rd one server with VMs and i can reach all of them, also, when I see one switch offline I make some tests remotely doing router -> 3rd floor and inside the VM 3rd floor -> router
I'm sorry if I'm not explain better way, but this is wired and this only happens with IoT devices specially with switches

Curious fact:
Today I have 2 switches offline, then I unplugged the RBS20 from the energy wait like 5 min and plugged again.
The switches come to online...
So, with this test maybe the problem is the communication between the router and satellite loose packages and the switches comes offline somehow...
Another test I will do is, change the RBS20 is on 3rd floor for one RBS50 I've in 0 floor and see if this still happens.
