Hi all,
Have/had a netgear prosafe gs748t (yes i know its old) after setting up 4 ports
in lacp, i lost connectivity to it,
(no ping response, just simply not showing on the network, tried netscan and
thedude but no luck)
So I went to factory reset , after factory reset, ports 1-24 no longer light up
at all. 25 -48 do light up but when I connect anything to it, it simply doesnt
work. I tried dhcp router > switch > laptop, the laptop will not even get DHCP
from the router , if I bypass the switch and plug the laptop to the router then
I get DHCP as expected.
So not only is the management function shot, but so is the routing/switching
capability.
I know by many accounts these are not the greatest switches, but for the price
I gues thats what makes them attractive, the other surprising thing I found was
that there is no console port (i guess that why they are inexpensive?) I'm
wondering if anyone has come across this?
If anyone has any thoughts/suggestions it would be greatly appreciated
