Hi Net-Gear-Man,
Welcome to the community! :)
Most of the time, I use the web-GUI in upgrading or downgrading the firmware of NETGEAR Smart switch(es) just like the GS752TP. Let me share these steps below:
1. Disconnect your GS752TP from your existing network.2. Connect the PC where you have downloaded the firmware v6.0.1.16 to a working LAN port on your GS752TP. Make sure to unzip firmware v6.0.1.16.3. Set a static IP address of 192.168.0.210 to your PC.4. Open a browser like IE or Firefox then at the address bar, type 192.168.0.239 then press Enter. Login to the user interface of switch. Enter "admin" as the username and "password" as the password.Note: The default IP address of GS752TP is 192.168.0.239.5. Click Maintenance then click Download.6. On the left column, click HTTP File Download.7. On File Type, select Archive. On Image Name, select image1.8. Click Browse then locate the firmware v6.0.1.16 that you have unzipped earlier.9. Click Apply.Note: After a file transfer is started, please wait until the page refreshes. When the page refreshes, the Select File option will be blanked out. This indicates that the upgrade process is done.10. On the GS752TP GUI, click on Maintenance then click Reset.11. Click Factory Default on the left column.Note: It is recommended to reset the device back to factory default settings after doing a firmware upgrade/downgrade.12. Check the box then click Apply. Wait for the GS752TP to boot up by itself. Then, reconfigure it from scratchHope it helps. :)Regards,DaneANETGEAR Community Team

Hi DaneA,
Thank you for those instructions - they worked perfectly! How can I perform the firmware upgrade/downgrade if I can't access the GUI?
Thank You :)
