Firmware Upgrade TFTP Timeout
Success!!!
Had to disable firewall and security apps. Thanks for the support.
Just in order to understand you correctly: Did you try launching TFTP update over the web interface or the utility? AFAIR the Utility cannot use "another" protocol as it connects over its own way/protocol to a switch. If it can find the switch and connect to it, there is a chance it does support it.
For comparison: I had issues launching and completing TFTP update by sending the update commend Web UI using a GS110TP, it did however work when I connected and then update the firmware using the Netgear utility and then uploaded the firmware using the utility. It was very slow but ended up working.
Overall I'd try being connected to the switch over wire but that's a generic recommendation for all updates since the chance of being disconnected during an update is lower than on wireless.
