Has anyone gotten a "non-factory" firmware to go onto these guys? There are a couple

solved all of the random ass bugs."

If I didn't already have a couple of stacked Extreme x400s, I'd consider these 
at home, but they're somewhat buggy.

Quanta told me to contact whomever I bought it from... but I don't think the 
random guy on eBay is going to have much of anything useful to say.



Oh FSM, those things.  Urgh.

They are like the EIF24G series and 10GCF from Foundry - OEM devices that vendors can just rebrand with their own logos and sell.

I've tried swapping the firmware on the EIF24G-As and the Dell equivalent, and its been a miss every time. Got several of them at one point with 'defective ports' that magically got fixed with a firmware upgrade.

Even with the firmware upgrades, STP was a hot mess on them causing odd blocking situations.

Your better off going with something like the new Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch Lite.
