[TL-SG108E] No switch exists in the local area network
2018-05-29 18:06:05
Model :

Hardware Version :

Firmware Version :

ISP :

I have a TL-SG108E v.1 switch (so no web interface, only Easy Smart Configuration Utility for configuration) and connect my computer directly to it. I configured a static IP address 192.168.0.2 and the switch (192.168.0.1) as the default gateway. I am able to ping the switch, so my computer sees the switch. However, when I run the Configuration Utility (provided on a CD with the switch), the switch is not detected. I get a "No switch exists in the local area network". What can I do to access the configuration of the switch?

Do you connect the PC to the switch directly? And you can try to remove other devices temporarily for the test.

Yes I am connected directly to the switch. And there is no other device connected to the switch.

That's strange. Maybe you can download the utility from TP-Link official website and find the switch again.

I see the latest version on the official website is Easy_Smart_Configuration_V1.0.4.3_Utility.
Maybe you can also try to use other PCs to find the switch.
If it still cannot work, maybe the switch has fault.....

Yes, that is the version I have.
Thanks for the idea with the PC. I think it might be the PC indeed (I have already had problems with other tools, too ...)
Thanks for the help :)
