Hi, I’ve bought a Netgear GS108LP and it seems that it isn’t working correctly. As you can see in the video, when I power the switch on, the right LEDs (PoE Mode) flash yellow for about 1 second, but the left LEDs (Link/ACT Mode) don’t show anything. The cable connected to port 1 is directly connected to my router and the cable in port 5 is connected to a Philips Hue bridge. I’m sure that both cables work, because they work with other switches. I’ve already tried different cables too, but it’s the same result. Has anyone an idea how I can fix this issue? Thanks

    I see nothing on the video, so can’t comment on that, but could you test the switch by connecting a router to the 1st port and a notebook to every other port one by one, to check whether the devices talk to each other?

    I assume that the router acts as DHCP server, and the notebook is set to DHCP address lease, so no additional configuration is needed…

      Tried with with different cables again and tried to connect a notebook and a raspberry pi. I’ve also tried every single port, but nothing shows up on the devices and no LEDs flash/blink. :(
