TL-SG108E v2 HW - causes WIFI to drop
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hooked this switch to my WiFi ISP router, and then connected my PS4 to it.
My Samsung S8+ mobile WiFi then showed the connection quality drop with a "internet may not be available" message come up.
After some stuffing around I noticed that the SG108E switch comes with DHCP turned off and a default IP address of 192.168.0.1 for its management interface
Since 192.168.01 is also my router IP it looks like it ended causing a routing loop causing the router to drop packets, possibly due to a cpu overload.
In any case , if you do buy this switch, turn DHCP on or check for any ip conflict with 192.168.0.1....why they ship it this way I'm not sure, but these consumer devices should be set up in a way they are idiot proof :-)
