Netgear will only provide support if I give them money on this switch. I do not have an active support contract.
Even though this has never worked I do have a work around by using my Mac computer and a browser that can access the switch.

I don't plan on paying netgear money when I have a method to configure the switch.

I just wish their software actually worked.

Have you tried other web browsers?

What other web browser would you suggest on a PC.

I to get to the logon screen and I can type my password in. The next screen looks like it is trying to log into the switch. I see the Netgear logo and a logout prompt but nothing other than that with IE 11 and Edge.

All works fine on the Mac browser.

I have tried edge without any luck either.

    I tried Firefox and it does exactly the same thing as IE version 11.
