GS308EP: System Time?

Hello,

 

According to the User Manual, I should be able to set System Time as well as configure a PoE schedule.  

 

I am not seeing that "SYSTEM TIME" section anywhere on my GS308EP, running the latest firmware (2.0.0.5).  

This User Manual applies to both EP and EPP switches.  Is it possible that only the EPP switches have this option?

 

Thanks!

    Hello escape2​  ​ 

     

    A perfect valid question.

     

    According the Revision History in the current User Manual, Date and Time settings and PoE Schedule were added in February 2026. However, the current "last" firmware is 2.0.0.5 for both the GS308EP and the GS308EPP, which does include the features as documented in May 2025. Oddly, the revision date (according to the Release Notes document) is in July 2025.

     

    Feels like the firmware including the new added features was not published yet as of writing. JulienR​ please -)

     

    Guess you are a new customer for this GS308EP: So don't hesitate to contact Netgear Support, and include a link reference to this post, and ask about the availability of an update with the date and time settings, also including the PoE schedule sections as documented.  

     

    Regards,

    -Kurt
