SMC EZ Switch SMC-8024L2 24-Port Gigabit - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Looks to me like they never implemented the serial port. The used unit I just obtained has no signal on the serial console pins and no SMC documentation beyond plugging it in appears to exist. Likewise with TELNET access. However you can reset the switch to factory defaults with the following procedure from a pop-up window off the login page. It worked for me. ---------- If you have forgotten the administration password you can return the Switch to its factory default state by doing the following: 1) Remove the power cord from the back of the Switch. 2) Remove all cables from the front-panel ports. 3) Connect port 1 to port 2, on the front panel, using a standard network cable. 4) Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the Switch. 5) Wait at least 40 seconds before disconnecting port 1 from port 2. After completing this procedure, the password will be 'smcadmin' and the network address will be returned to the default; 192.168.2.10/24.

You realize people reading this have no idea what this mumbo-jumbo means. Brett has no idea and he is the master of all masters in lateral thinking! 'make model (what it is)', plus a detailed description of the issue!

SMC Networks serves up networking equipment, with or without wires. The company makes wireless local area network (LAN) devices designed for use in homes and businesses.

There suppose to be a reset button on it mainly on the back of it

different USB port. There are usually 3 or 4 of them. If you can, format the USB drive (if you have nothing on it or already have copies of what is on it). It will take 10 seconds, but will wipe all data. It should be recognized then.

look for a windows xp driver file on the included program compact disc that may need to be installed before you use the included program.

Call your ISP and have them approve the new device.

The question doesn't make sense but I'll assume you mean, How fast is it. It's set by the IEEE standards. IEEE802.11 Look for eg. 802.11n The letter at the end will give you an idea of it's speed. N is current standard AC is the most up to date a & b are old standards See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11 Cheers Trevor

Hi,efault U need to isolate the problem first. Check if the wireless drops on all devices or only on one particular device. If it occurs on only one particular device,the problem is with the wireless adapter of that advice.. If it happens on all the devices then the problem is with wireless router For that Check for the wireless interference . Avoid having cordless phone base near the router. Also try changing the wireless channel of the router To 1,6,11 U can do this by logging on to the router set up page of your router To Find the address of your router,type ipconfig /all in the command prompt.Look for the Default gateway address and type it in the address bar.U will find your Router set up page..and u can change the wireless channel there

JRod3, Your new Laptop is capable of Wireless N theoretical transfer rate of 300 mbps with two antennas. Your router is wireless G at max. theoretical transfer rate of 54 mbps. I would recommend replacing your router with one that has wireless N. I use a Motorola Surfboard SBG6580. With some routers you can go into your settings and disable the firewall which will help with the speed. Firewalls can sometimes be redundant if you have a firewall in your operating system (windows) anyway. Before you run out and get a new router I would hardwire your laptop to the router (cat5E cable) you have now just to make sure you don't have a bottleneck somewhere else. Then do a speed test using your Vuze program. You may need to Port Forward your router, not always necessary..... you can get lots of info at portforward.com on your specific router. Depending on your speed that you are paying for from Time Warner you want to make sure you have the right router as well. Here is a list Buy Your Modem Time Warner Cable . If you reach your desired speeds hardwired to your laptop then I would get the new Wireless N router. Good Luck.

Printed on the label on the bottom of the unit. If that doesn't work, do a factory reset with a paper clip in the reset hole.

You can use TELNET from the command prompt in Windows, but you need the name / IP address and login credentials.

CONTINUAL DISCONNECTION OF WIRELESS CONNECTION There are a few things that can cause you to lose wireless connection with your wireless router. 1. Weak signal strength, check the signal strength on your wireless card. If it is weak move the wireless router away from brick or concrete walls and if possible locate the wireless router higher up. 2. Have you secured your wireless router from people near your from unauthorized access? i.e. change the default password, setup encryption use WPA2 or WPA, change the default SSID, and turn off SSID broadcast, and for added protection, enable MAC address filtering which allows only the MAC address/es of your wireless card/s to connect to your wireless router. 3. You could be getting interference from electrical sources such as air conditioners, arc welders, washing machines etc. If so, the power supply to the wireless routers and computers etc should be connected to a surge protection power board, better still connect your computer equipment to an UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply). 4. Check the channels of the wireless routers and access points in your area and change the broadcast channel on your wireless router to an unused channel or one that is currently used but has the weakest signal strength. This will minimize interference with your wireless router from other wireless routers and access points in your area.
