My model is " LG-SWTG124AS ", with Ver 1.9 firmware. Can I upgrade using this version?
Well I bit the bullet and it does work on this model.
Thanks - also worked for me!
This is the response I got from Aliexpress support for Horaco

"Same firmware
LG - ZX is just the internal model for the type of power supply"

Hope this clears it for everyone :)

BTW, I also upgraded today to v1.9.1. My model is - LG-SWTG124AS

Cheers!

Thank you for this. I was not sure because of the first two letters being different and now we know. Thank you.

Here's link for 1.9 firmware and manual from HORACO:
Web manual-(https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PHLmQ58ZV3oD-gS2nSWsIe-R0jKKMvVN/view?usp=sharing)
Firmware- (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yzEZnRH4A5bM-fUlQ54IB1fmcbxu82xP/view?usp=drive_link)

I don't know why it's named as SWTGW124AS, but it seems to work just fine.
This is identical to the firmware provided by SODOLA on their website for "SL-SWTG124AS-D":

Does anyone have any experience of changing the management VLAN on these switches? Whilst you can set the IP of the switch into the subnet you desire, the switch is not accessible unless you are plugged into a port in VLAN1. I don't really want VLAN 1 hanging around, but I can't see any other way to avoid that with this.
I've done a few days ago a quick test with firmware v1.9 setting ports 1-4 each on a different vlan, untagged (also setting pvid for each of them) and the management IP was reachable from all of them. Imagine having DHCP on all VLANS and the switch set to DHCP, that'll be fun.
Weird that you got different results, I'll redo the tests in different configs (tagged/untagged) to be sure.
I've sent some e-mails to Sodola regarding this but I got zero replies, not even a thank you.
If anyone finds a firmware for these switches that lets you choose the management VLAN please share.
Thank you!
