Re: 1920-8HPv2 - SYS LED flashing rapidly. System does not boot

Dear @Moritz_M , The stable/latest firmware of GS1920-8HPv2 had already released for some time, but there is no similar feedback from other users recently, so we hope you may help us to confirm the points below: The SYS LED flashing means the device is booting up, could you let us know how long have you waited? Over 1 minute?There is a Reset button which will reboot Switch with cold start and also a Restore button to reset the Switch to factory default setting when holding for over 7 seconds.On the right-hand side of the Switch, there is a 4-pin port can be connected with a 4-pin-to-USB console cable, do you have the cable?If you have "waited for a long time", "tried to reset or restore", "don't have such console cable on your hand", we recommend you contacting your reseller for the RMA process.

NBG7815 Port 80 and forwarding

I bought a NBG7815 router for the 10gb port yesterday. However I can't forward Port 80. I run my own server and cloud which needs that port. I was also displeased at having to set up an account to use a device I bought that generally does not need an account. What happens if Zyxel stop trading? Do I end up with a brick (useless device)?

Issue 1 is port 80. You need to change this. It is not acceptable in this day an age for a router to disallow the forwarding of port 80. You have plenty of other ports open which can use for use for your cloud account stuff.

Issue 2. After setting up the router I now get a "service unavailable" message so can't even log into it. I don't want to have to go about resetting it for the second time. The first was because it decided to not work after I changed the IP address and connected it to my modem.

If anyone in the community can help or offer advice on the above it would be appreciated.

As for Zyxel I now have three options. 1. I can wait for OpenWrt who are currently working on it, 2. I can root it and try to forward the port myself or 3. I return the device as not fit for purpose as I am within the return timescale. At the moment I am looking at 3. So please tell me your intentions with fixing this so I can make an informed choice. You have to understand if someone is buying your router then they generally have an internet connection over the standard 1gb and there is usually a good reason for that. Sure some use it for gaming but I would say that a very large percentage are paying for the extra bandwidth for the exact same reason as me.

I await a response in this matter. As I said if anyone in the community has any ideas on my problems that would brilliant, thanks.
