Accessing 3 switches - wrong subnet
Hi all, I'm sure this will have been answered before but my searches are throewing up a blank. I have 3 switches which I seem unable to access. 16 port (GS116Ev2), 5 port (GS305E), and another 5 port (GS105Ev2). I understand that they're on a different subnet (192.168.0.239 - all of them) and my subnet is different (192.1.168.100). However, I cannot temporarily switch to 192.168.0.xxx because my router (a 5G router / modem) will not alow me. I tried moving the whole router onto that subnet and it wouldn't allow it an then I tried moving just my pc onto that subnet and it wouldn't allow that too. My plan was to access these switches and put them into the home range (192.168.0.xxx) on DHCP or fixed IP but I'm not sure how I can do this now? Maybe take the switches to someone elses house who doesn't rely on a 5G modem router? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.Solved
