GS308T
1 TopicOnly the GS308 series loses connection from the Wi-Fi router
When I connect a Sony Wi-Fi router(NSD-G1000T) to Port 1 of a GS308 series switch, it receives an IP address from the DHCP server and functions as a switch for the first 3-5 seconds. My PC connected to Port 2 of the switch can send/receive ping both the switch and the Wi-Fi router. However, after the first 3-5 seconds passed, the Wi-Fi router then disconnects from the switch. After the disconnection, my PC can ping only the switch. The Wi-Fi router is missing form PC side.

I have multiple GS308 and GS108E, I retry and test this by each device but the result was same. It is not individual device issue, it seems to have some compatibility issue. [Connection Map: Work] Sony Wi-Fi router with DHCP Server <-- Port 1--> GS108E Switch <-- Port 2 --> PC The GS308 seems to have some compatibility issues with Sony Wi-Fi routers. If I could solve the problem by turning off some function of the GS308, I would be grateful. I would appreciate some advice from anyone who has had a similar experience and has a solution.Solved70Views0likes10Comments
