@ironsniper1,

 

Welcome to the community! 🙂

 

It seems that the GS205 has a hardware fault.  I suggest you to access the GS205 product page here then click on the "Guided Assistance" button.  Kindly follow the online instructions to create a support ticket and let the NETGEAR Support Team do a hardware check.  If the GS205 has been proven faulty, be ready to submit a soft copy of the Proof of Purchase of the switch for warranty verification.  If the hardware warranty is still valid, an online replacement will be processed.

 

 

Regards,
