Hello,
I am having the same issue as many many others posted elsewhere (Amazon and co). This is the only thing why this switch is "not good and not acceptable" for me.
TP-Link disabled completely modifications for VLAN 1 even in Web interface as in the mgmt software.
My issue is, that our company's network topology even uses tagged VLAN 1 packets in the "Switch Inter-connections", untagged packes are only allowed on the client side ports. To get the TL-SG-108E switches part of the network (we already ordered 10 pcs of them) they must accept and repeat VLAN 1 tagged packets but all the options to modify that are greyed out. In this case I need to set some ports VLAN 1 to be tagged (for the way to another switch) some to be forbid (when they should NOT be part of VLAN 1) and some to be untagged (for client connections).
I know, that you can not compare a HP enterprise switch with this "cheap crap" but the "cheap crap" may be also very good and usable with only unlocking this feature.
For 99% I think that it is only a software limitation, so with a modification in firmware this problem should be completely solved.
Even the setting of the mgmt vlan should be possible!!!
Please, please, please, if possible dear TP-Link team, please implement a fully working VLAN configuration into that brand of switches.
I or we know, that it is possible to close out ourself of the web interface but therefore we have a good working reset button ;)
Thank you

Hello everyone,
Firstly sincerely sorry for the trouble taken to you all, and we have noticed this issue.
We are now trying to making a new firmware to resolve it, and maybe we could provide some beta firmware next week if it goes well.
Hope you all have a nice day, and thank you in advance for sharing your kindly understanding.

Even if Easy-Smart is code for Lightweight Smart Pretend Managed, the current state of the firmware renders these otherwise credible switches as not fit for purpose. I know of several sites including mine where fingers have been burned by investing in these switches. If TP Link doesn’t release a fix / workaround very soon it’s good name will take a major hit.

TL-SG-105E V3 - VLAN1 issue
2017-12-26 03:34:50
Hello,
Recently I bought the TL-SG105E - the smaller version of the TL-SG108E.
While configuring a VLAN I tried to remove some ports from the default VLAN but no luck.
I kind doubt myself if this was normal or not as the TL-SG105E is from a brand that sells mostly network equipment so they couldn't be so lame to have this wrong....or could they?
So I went to my Zyxel GS1900-8 and figured that the TL-SG105E.has this huge firmware bug.
In my Zyxel, aside from being able to change the default VLAN ID from 1 to something else, it's also possible to exclude ports from any VLAN including the default.
There's a risk with being able to change the membership of the default VLAN: one could be locked out from the WEBUI but it can be undone by reseting the switch to factory default or preventing one from removing all ports from the default VLAN.
Nevertheless, for a "business line" equipment, it has kind of a "noob" feature! Maybe it's targeted for "noob businesses", who can tell.
I just hope they fix this soon otherwise I'll to sell this to someone who doesn't care for this VLAN issue and buy something that isn't flawed.
I'm attaching some zyxel screenshots in case there's some TP-Link engineer watching. Maybe he can get some ideas out of it.

This risk can be avoided by the firmware assigning a port back to VLAN1 if it is not a member of any other VLAN. This is implemented this way in TP-Link's smart switches such as in the TL-SG2008 or the T series.
But you are right, a factory reset can save the day for users who are new to VLANs and want to learn the basics. If they eventually got more experienced by this, they will learn how to access the web UI even if all ports have been removed from the default VLAN. In fact, it would have an educational effect to allow removing all ports from VLAN1, too. ;)

Just bought a TL-SG-108E v3 and not being able to remove ports from VLAN1 is not good, can we get a beta version? I'd like to try before my 30 return period is up.

I have 12 days to return, if TP-Link does not provide the patch, I am returning this unreboarded product.

Hello everyone,
Sorry to keep you all waiting so long for the updates.
We have just finish the development and test for the new official firmware of TL-SG105E and TL-SG108E, please go to download them in our official website:
TL-SG105E FW20171214: http://www.tp-link.com/en/download/TL-SG105E_V3.html#Firmware
TL-SG108E FW20171214: http://www.tp-link.com/en/download/TL-SG108E_V3.html#Firmware
If you have come across with any issues, please feel free to follow in this post or contact us via phone/email.
Besides, if your TP-Link devices are TL-SG108PE or TL-SG1016PE, I'm afraid it would still need a few days for the official firmware released, maybe at the end of this month if all goes well.
Finally, thank you all for kindly choosing TP-Link products, and thank you all for kindly sharing your feedback and advice!
