Which browser?
Which browser to use in programing a GS724TPS? Specifically when trying to setup vlan's. Firefox and chrome work, but when I select VLAN Membership, it doesn't give me the table to tag ports. ...

Safari?
Huh?
I manage a bunch of Netgear switches on a mostly mac network. Safari is the last thing I would try with a Netgear GUI - Java blocks and other issues make most of the GUI invisible.
Learn to use the cli - that's where the real control lies.
If you want a GUI and need to go to the dark side, better to use IE - I think there is a version for Mac.
Or, in Chrome/Firefox clean your Browsing data --> Cookies.
I have had Java issues on Windows boxes running Chrome. Had to put the admin address in the Java 'allowed zones' to make it all work. Still get a scare message from the browsers.
This would go away if I were to go to https when accessing the switch GUI but I don't feel like messing around with certs and other bits of trivia for a locally accessed resource.
Netgear should can Java - it's becoming more of a liability than asset.
