Time 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 GuyHow 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.
Support LACP L2+L3 hashing on XS series switches
The XS series switches only support L2 hashing with LACP (802.3ad), apparently only the managed switches support anything beyond L2. The ReadyNAS units support L2, L2+L3, and L2+L3+L4 out of the box. Could the upper tier web managed switches please have at least L2+L3 support added? I'm not talking about going crazy and adding more than that. Should be a relatively minor change, the UI changes would likely be more involved than the protocol changes. It should be a big benefit to the ReadyNAS users.Support HTTPS oin GS1xxE web Managet Switches
Please consider using HTTPS for the web management of the GS1xxE line of switches. Especially the smaller models need a secure way to configure them as there are no real replacements for in-field deployments outside special technical rooms where is no room to fit an entire rack into... As the current state of security of many of the embedded or IoT thingis is sub-optimal it is crucial to prevent login credential sniffing via other pOwnd network devices within the same subnet.

monitoring frames/packets on Netgear Prosafe GS748T
We have 3 x Netgear Prosafe GS748T – 3H31417C003FE / 3H31417L00392 / 3H31417F00339 We are experiencing high TCP latency within our infrastructure which predominantly is a RDS/Terminal Services environment. I was wondering if I might ask the best tools, or if they are tools by HP that can monitor and detect network related clashes on switch ports. Many Thanks, Shawn McKendrick
