Hello, I have a wax202(AX1800) I was using as an access point then decided to move it to main router function so I did a reset. I don't know if its related but now I have no ethernet connection(no orange or green light and no internet connection to pc or laptop) My old netgear router has a working throughput for ethernet when connected so it's not an isp or cable issue. tried a pushbutton reset a few times no luck, is my 202 dead? Is there a way to push a firmware update without an internet connection? ty59Views0likes4CommentsCan't access ReadyNAS Pro 6
Hello friends, As the title says, I have an old RNDP6000 and I can't access it. It had been turned off for a long time. I'm using Windows 11 Pro. Its readout shows it is on and displays its IP address. I can successfully ping that address with the cmd prompt, but it doesn't show up in Network. I can log into the Control Panel through a web browser and log in, but the CP says "No shares currently available", and offers no options or menus. I would welcome any and all advice! Thanks in advance.275Views0likes31CommentsMy Netgear POE switch FS728TP is on but no POE activity
I had 2 of these switches for several years working fine! I just discovered that though the switch is on including the lights of the POE it still does not provide any POE activity when I plug in a device. When I tried to reset the switch all the lights do come on in the top part but still nothing works! Could it be that POE has a fuse that blew? Appreciate your feedback!No internet after switch is plugged in
I have a GS305v3 unmanaged switch that I just bought and attempted to use. It is connected to my internet via cat6 cable that I ran from my office in my house where my router/modem is located, to my bedroom. When I connect any device to the ethernet port that I put in the bedroom, I have no issues connecting to the internet. But if I plug the switch into the port, then any device to the switch, no internet is passing through. All lights on the switch illuminate as they should according to the manual, but I can't seem to find any info as to what the problem possibly is. For a clear picture of how all the hardware is set up: Fiber internet direct to router/modem in office Cat6 cable to ethernet port in office Cat6 cable from office ethernet port to bedroom ethernet port through the attic Any device connected directly to ethernet port in bedroom works perfectly with 1000mbps+ download Switch plugged direct to ethernet port, devices plugged into switch, no internet to any devices Any advice would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance to anyone who offers advice.112Views0likes17CommentsGS724TPv2 won't factory reset
I have reset before, but now it won't. I pushed in the factory reset button for 5 seconds and nothing happens (before it would flash the lights) and the Power light is amber. This switch hasn't even been used yet, it was a spare. Please help. I would hate to think it never got to be used, especially now that I need it. Thanks, ConradSolved2.3KViews0likes8CommentsGS308EP Won't Factory Reset
So I have been using a GS308EP for my network for a while. I set it and forgot it and didn't leave a management port open. I'm changing my network now, so I tried holding the 'reset' button for +10 seconds and all it did was restart. It's clear that the reset button works, but it seems that the factory reset does not. Does anyone know how to fix this?Netgear GS316EP reports as GS108EV3 after factory reset
We have an unused Netgear GS316EP 16 port switch. During troubleshooting we were asked to factory reset the switch. After factory reset it reverted to it's default IP address. When you connect via web to the switch via it's default IP address, the switch now says it is a GS108Ev3 8 port switch. The configuration utility is completely different from before. I downloaded the newest firmware but have not yet tried to install. The installation of firmware is even very different between the different models and I was concerned that the incorrect firmware (wrong model) might brick the switch. How can we get our 16 port GS316EP back? (We need all 16 ports not just 8)
