My gs108t managed switch suddenly started to reset it self. Power led turns from green to orange constantly and the switch resets it self. The switch worked perfectly find previous to that. I have tried to replace the power supply - did not helped.
Same issue if nothing connected. After a factory reset it hold a little bit longer (an hour or so) and then this error resume.
About the warranty, netgear said to me that they are not going to accept the lifetime warranty on the router because the country I live in... not legal, not very acceptable. They has no problem selling me those switches.
I'm from Israel. Have several case numbers, last one from last week is 46558154. Previous case number, when they told me I can't use the warranty is 4519838.
With this attitude of netgear I rather replace all of my netgear equipment with a company that respects the customers. I can't rely and hope that no malfunction occur in any of the switches.
That is a bit bogus if they're selling in that location to not honor the warranty.
If Netgear does offer these systems in Israel, being by a direct sales organization, being by official dealers they will cover warranty claims.
If people buy from markets where devices probably don't match the regulatory requirements of the end user market, probably doing self-importing (what goes along with taking a lot of risks!). the device might not allowed to be used abroad, might come with different regulatory settings, might come with incomplete or wrong regulatory or testing marks, it might be not fit to operate, can't be imported legally, or even taken away and destroyed by customs or national regulatory bodies. None of this is Netgear's mistake or bad will. Similar issues can arise if Netgear would import or bring such devices into circulation.
Many customers from say A......on, Ebäh, or similar think they order under trust from the big bookshop or the like think they are safe. No, you will take over all the risks involved by self-import of such devices. This does include any warranty claims wihc become worthless. You can be held responsible alone for the import, for bringing into circulation, or for power-up and use such equipment. This is not because of Netgear is a bad business, This is because many customers often don't understand anything about all this.
