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 already set the Smart Control Center utility to be on the Allowed Programs? If not yet, kindly check this link for Windows 10 and this link for Windows 7.
If ever you have already set it on the Allowed Programs, kindly try to uninstall the current version of the Smart Control Center utility on your PCs then try to install a lower version of Smart Control Center utility like v1.1.3.1 then check if the GS516TP will be detected. You may download the Smart Control Center utility versions here

I first checked to see if Smart Control Center is on the Allowed Programs. I found two instances of sccd that showed allowed for home networks.
I then uninstalled version 1.1.3.3 and installed 1.1.3.1 there was no difference.
I then uninstalled version 1.1.3.1 and installed 1.1.3.2 there was no difference. sccd still showed up as a allowed program twice.
I am not able to detect the switch using Smart Control Center.
Any other things I should try?
