![]() I ran a number of tests to try to ascertain which of the settings suggested by might be the culprit. Simple to replace–just start up the new switch, move the Ethernet wires. So to enable this path of solution to progress I purchased a new GS308E Netgear managed switch (8-port) to replace the GS108. ![]() Only when came along (after I had given up!) and logically going through it was the role of the Netgear GS108 network switch suggested changing a couple of settings on the switch, assuming it was a “managed” switch. Cast out for ideas here and with friends. ![]() I rejected thinking it was hardware related since the odds of failure on the two Macs was low. I assumed the problem cause resided with the Macs OS or the NAS. The only way to resolve things I could find would be to re-boot the computers. Finder would “beach-ball” when clicking on the server. Using the “mount” command in the Terminal would show the shares mounted. The Automounter app said “Mounting…” and would eventually time out. On waking the machines would not recognise the mounts. Before going into sleep, all the mounts worked well. The problem/symptom was on two machines–iMac and a MacBook Pro both with up to date OS’s failing to activate mounts (shares) with a Synology NAS (relatively new with up to date OS) on waking from sleep.
