52 TopicsTime to renew my GS716T v3
Hi all I have a GS716T v3 which is the main switch in my home. I got it 2nd hand about 5 years ago, so it will be older than that now. I think it is time to replace with an up to date Poe switch. I dont really use any of the enhanced options in the 716...I just want a very fast 16 port POe gigabit switch which is walll mountable. What would you recommend ? Was looking at the GS316P Last thing I want to do is install a replacement which will have a lower throughput. cheers GuyCU-Ball
I'm a Conceptual Designer and have been working on a full range of integrated products for Home Networking Systems that may be of great interest to NETGEAR & Major Cable Providers. This system greatly reduces ‘back of TV wiring’, support calls and DIY install time and frustration. The current range of products include: Power Supply Cable Modem Set Top Box WiFi 7 Router DVR - eSata Battery Backup - UPS (Dependent on capacity, this maybe simply a battery backed alarm and status module, optionally wired to a hidden larger, 3rd party unit.) Blu-Ray DVD Streaming Box Connected Speakers Bluetooth Speakers Home Automation (Displays on TV). Home Security Service (Displays on TV) Jump Drive Interface Voice Remote Control Charging Station Smartphone / App Integration Totally new design concept. There is a long term upgrade path that ensures that new technology can be incorporated for years to come. There is a backward compatibility that allows mix and matching with legacy products There are two physical variations at price points that allow for marketing differentiation. (Perhaps Branded Elite and White Box OEM) The questions are: What am I missing? What is the best approach to pitch this range ? 1/ NETGEAR 2/ Charter / Comcast etc... as they may provide the basic units on subscription? 3/ Other.. Please specify. As this range is pre-patent, more in depth discussions maybe subject to NDA.456Views0likes0CommentsGS724Tv6 24-Port MLD DHCPv6 blocking packets
Hello, MLD snooping is saying SNOOP[snoopTask]: snooping.c(885) 746 %% DBG Not an MLD packet ff02::1 when i trying use a DHCPv6 client to get an DHCPv6 address/prefix from my Experiabox V10. If i disable IGMP snooping, it works(isnt this for ipv4?). I am using software version 7.0.0.12. What settings do i need to apply to get this working on the switch with IGMP snooping enabled?Create a "General" topic in the forums (and why isn't my topography working)?
Oh, and allow legacy products under Associated products. I have a network topography problem that's taken me some time to nail, and describe. I got me a used Netgear M4100-26G. Not bad. God price. Works well. But I can't select it as an Associated product because it's not produced any more. Like the community can't discuss legacy products? I am also using a NetGear EV6200 as a WAP which is central to this topography problem (which I also can’t select as an associated product). In a nutshell I have a long term functioning topography as follows: Working for years: D-Link switch --- Netgear GS108 --- Netgear EX6200. The Switch is where all my LAND devices come together. The EX6200 works as a WAP and has IoT devices reporting on it. Has been fine for years. The GS108 is only there for historic reasons because a few other devices connect to it (a TV and an Xbox to be precise). These could actually be routed by the EX6200 and I could get rid of the GS108 but for physical topography and cable lay issues for now, but that is a digression. Point is that's a legacy working system I can manage the EX6200 and reach its web interface from any device connected to my LAN (via the D-Link switch) and the devices connected to the EX6200. Wi-Fi connected devices have internet access through the switch. The D-link started to play up (basically making a load of oise, likely a fan issue) so I looked quickly online for ana affordable replacement with around the 24 ports. Found a chap Netgear M4100-26G. Pretty nice working well, except for one link and only one (of the 20 odd on it). I swapped it in place of the D-Link switch and tested all my links. This one mentioned here fails. It is now: Not working: Netgear M4100-26G --- Netgear GS108 --- Netgear EX6200. I should point out that some 20 odd other services on the M41 do work. that this link to the EX62000 does not work on any of the M4100s ports, it's not port specific. So I tried an experiment. I still have a couple of Netgear GS108Ev3s on hand which predate the D-Link and were used while I could get by on them (but I needed more ports at some point so replaced them with a cheap D-Link switch). But they were still there and available as warm spares. Switched one on and tried this: Not working: Netgear M4100-26G --- Netgear GS108Ev3 --- Netgear GS108 --- Netgear EX6200. And now I can reach the EX6200 and my IoT devices are online. I can switch between these two topographies and have done serval times now because it beggars believe, and run a ping to the EX6200. The cable between the M4100 and GS108 is some 15m through walls/ The other cables are all short and under 1m. If I plug the GS108 into the M4100 the ping stops, if I plug it into the GS108Ev3 it starts I can go back and forth, with patience (as the timeout is a but long, but have established beyond any doubt that one topography works, the other not. So the D-Link worked with it. The M4100 for some reason doesn't like this 15m cable to the GS108. Is it the 15m that's to blame? Categorically not, at least 3 other lines emerging from the D-link (now the M4100) are 15 m cat6 cables that run to WAPs across the property The M4100 is happy with all those. These are all stock 15m cat 6 cables manufactured thusly. Three of them have the remote end manually patched into a wall plate. There is nothing to implicate the cable here. The M4100 is implicated. I have a workaround. But do I need to run a whole other 8 port switch just for this to work? What can I do to learn more from this, to turn into an experience gathering exercise, a learning exercise. What in the technology employed here could be causing this, and what does the M4100 offer as tools to diagnose? It does have a cable test feature (the M4100) But it's odd in the extreme as it reports failed cables that are working (including the uplink cable - to the WAN router, which is very sort running to my gateway router) and reports cable lengths that are totally wrong by an order or two of magnitude for the ones that pass. The M4100 does have later firmware available and I may try and update some time, but it's never risk free, and the web interface upload isn't working (these old boxes have among their lovely features sometimes reliance on deprecated web features, so I'll have to look a console approach). I test connectivity from a desktop using ping and trying to load the EX6200 web interface. And I have drawn the two topographies for the visually inclined and attach them.layer 3 setup
LS, Ik kan nergens vinden welke switch het beste is om mijn Netgear netwerk in subnetten op te delen. Doel is om de Internet of things (IoT) devices met een ander netwerk te laten praten dan de meer 'serieuze' apparaten. Tussen het Fritz!box modem en bovengenoemde S350 (Layer 2) Switch wil ik daarom een (bijv. Layer 3) Switch toevoegen waarmee ik subnetten kan aanleggen met elk een eigen afgeschermde IP-RANGE. Kortom, waarmee ik: (A) meerdere VLAN's kan maken; (B) voor elk VLAN een DHCP functie kan instellen; (C) ik heb geen voorkeur om via één Trunk verbinding naar de S350 te gaan, danwel middels een aantal poorten op de gewenste/beoogde switch. Alvast bedankt als je meedenkt over een oplossing. English I can't find anywhere which switch is best for dividing my Netgear network into subnets. The aim is to allow the Internet of things (IoT) devices to connect to a different network than other 'serious' devices. I therefore want to add a (e.g. Layer 3) Switch between the Fritz!box modem and the above-mentioned S350 (Layer 2) Switch with which I can create VLANs, each with its own shielded IP RANGE. In short, with which I: (A) can create multiple VLANs; (B) can set a DHCP function for each VLAN; (C) I have no preference to go to the S350 via one Trunk connection, or via a number of ports on the desired/intended switch. Thank you in advance if you think about a solution.WiFi Connectivity in Driving School

Hallo, De poorten van mijn Netgear Plus switch with PoE ProSafe GS108PE zijn allen bezet en ik wil een grotere kopen met minimaal 12 poorten. Welk type komt in aanmerking. Ben een goedwillende amateur en deze is geplaatst door mijn beveiligingsbedrijf en heb ik ook gebruikt voor mijn domotica) mvgHow can i escalate a support problem?
How can i escalate a support problem? Sept 19th 2023 I started trying to get support for a switch that was purchased at the end of June 2023. It's a unmanaged switch that started failing randomly. I would have to unplug power and re-connect to resolve issues. First i was having problems with the portal (login issues despite saved password in password manager, and problems getting one-time passcode). After a ticket was created i was sent a email to contact them by phone or the ticket would be archived. After calling, the system created another ticket despite me providing the first ticket. When i got some troubleshooting steps, i jumped through hoops to performed them on users machines because the problem is only in a office with 2 computers connected and affects nobody else in the office. I responded to their email with details. Then they refused to respond to emails about the ticket anymore and kept requesting i call them. So they would get a email and not address the message in the email and say i have to call them. So we played phone tag with me calling, being on hold and getting disconnected and then they send me emails saying they called me but i didn't answer. This is ridiculous. It appears nothing short of passively refusing to honor a warranty on a defective product. They were responding to emails, then after performing the troubleshooting steps, they kept responding to emails but stopped addressing any issues in email which removes all transparency.1.3KViews0likes2Comments
