southhamster Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 What was the problem with the SG300's? We have had 5 from 52 port poe,28,24 and 10 port all working perfectly for 2 years now.
AlanD Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 I've only bought and used Netgear switches for the last 30 years or so. I often buy second hand models and update the firmware - you can get some real bargains. They are not fantastic - but value for money is hard to beat. No significant problems. I'm not a fan of the GUI varying (seemingly unnecessarily) between one model and a later model, but I can understand that they are not necessarily going to update the interface on aging models. We use 10G at the core - well - 24G as the core switches are stacked via fibre in a redundant ring. We use VLANs, LACP redundant links to remote switches etc - all without issue. If anything the latest switches, firmware and GUI have more quirks than stuff that has been around for while - but I guess that is the same for most devices by every manufacturer. Never been sold on their wireless kit and routers though.

Davit2005 Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) Could someone explain to me how to get DHCP relaying working please? Royally ballsed everything up over half term using this!

A new thread might be an idea TBH Edited November 3, 2015 by Davit2005
Asgard Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Hi On most Netgear Layer3 Switches you set the DHCP relay System->Services->UDP Relay Global (make sure Admin Mode is enabled) This is a screenshot from our M6100 Core Chassis
pow Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Ahh - and leave the DHCP relaying options alone totally? Using a M7100 as the core and S3300's as dist level switches, all layer 3 switching done at the M7100. Thanks! Used to Cisco/Meraki/HP and never had this trouble!
