Device view not working
I can not get device view to work and I've been through all of the forums and tried everything. Netgear needs to fix this issue. Maybe if they actually cared about thier customers they would have a fix for this. Cisco systems and linksys don't have these issues. How about a new firmware update that allows for device view without java plugin. Netgear gives a lifetime warrenty on this switch but doesn't fix firmware or software issues.

Nothing you can do on these switches launched in 2010, and last firmware from 2012 for now.

Well, it's limited lifetime "only", so EndofSales plus some years. Security issues and the like will certainly be fixed for non-EoL products. Appears the Java device view (resp. an UI update) has never gained momentum. So suspect we face a technology at time of design limitation (just like automotive appliances and controllers).

Nope. Many have such isues, too - they EoL'ed such old switches (using Java or Flash for the device view) years ago already.
