GS308E-Editing the 802.1Q VLAN and add/remove VLAN ID's results in ALL VLAN ID's being broken
I noticed that if I edit the VLAN IDs in my GS208E the router destroys all programming for existing VLAN IDs. This has happened EVERYTIME I have needed to update the VLAN IDs. Every time I end up resetting to factory settings and reprogramming all VLANs from scratch. Thankfully, I don't need to update the switch often but I'm at whit's end with this issue.
New switch, current firmware,

See above:
Port 1 is the internet from my router and is tagged on all but ID=1. Ports 5 and 6 connect the primary router to the access points as tagged ports).
Ports 2 and 3 (ID=2010) are a NAS's bound interface (untagged)
if I try to add or delete a VLAN-ID, the web interface trashes the settings. Sometimes I get garbage characters, but nearly all the time the switch locks up and I cannot connect to it. If I factory reset the switch and enter things in order (add all the IDs, then membership) then everything goes well. An edit after the fact, not good.
