I removed the connection from the router to the switch, yet I couldn't reach it.
Yes, it could be due to your router and switch having different subnets.
Configure your computer's network adapter to use a fixed IP within the same subnet as the switch (e.g., 192.168.0.2). Access the switch interface and update its IP address to match the router's IP in the same range (e.g., 192.168.2.2). After this change, the switch will no longer be reachable. Revert your adapter to DHCP mode. Log back into the switch and verify if a "Save" option exists to preserve settings during reboots. Most modern switches don't retain configurations automatically, so you may need to power cycle the device to restore the previous IP assignment.
