This might be barking up the wrong tree, but have you tried a different usb to serial adapter? I made one out of a keystone and an old mini usb cable I had lying around per this post: https://forums.servethehome.com/ind...erful-10gbe-40gbe-switching.21107/post-316704
Yeah, I did. If you look at my last post up the page I wrote a little more about the other adapter I tried.
. I’m on my second cannibalized mini usb cable now so hopefully one of these other cables will work. If not I’m back to figuring out how to update the bootrom with only telnet access and no console.
enable
configure terminal
interface ve 1
no ip address 192.168.1.50/24 # substitute whatever address you'd configured
exit
[code]
Then set a new address, or enable DHCP (though I don't think the latter would be recommended).Did you run 'factory set-default'? I believe when I first got my 6450 and ran that, it was able to grab a DHCP address by default. The guide then tells you to disable it. You could skip that part if you are wanting to do a static DHCP assignment.
No, I did not run factory set-default . Would that set EVERYTHING to default, which is not my intention. I just want to be able to change the IP. Yes, I can also do a change in static IP assignment.
Yes, if you already have a lot of configuration in the switch it would make sense not to do a factory reset. I had assumed you had just received the switch and were setting it up from scratch, my bad.

What model was the Netgear you previously had? If it wasn't VLAN aware (unmanaged) and the TV equipment is using VLAN tags, the unmanaged switch will happily pass the traffic. The unconfigured ports on the 6450 just default to untagged VLAN 1; if the Freebox packets are VLAN tagged, the switch is either discarding the VLAN tagged packets or honoring them, but has no tagged ports to send them to. Was the Netgear that the TV system was plugged into shared by the rest of your network? Have you also confirmed that the Freebox connected to the TV is pulling the correct IP address to work?
yeah I can almost promise it's a case of vlans, @sergi0 if you really wanna figure it out, connect the modem directly to your PC, and run wireshark for a few minutes. The dump should show what VLAN tags it's sending out. might be easier to connect the TV box and capture it instead, in case the modem doesn't initiate any TV VLAN traffic until the tv box does
