GS748TS web interface issue when configuring LAGs
We have several GS748TS which need reconfiguration of the LAGs, however neither Chrome nor IE 10 (both normal and compatibility mode) appear to allow us to access the LAG configuration. In Google C...

Jeez, what an attitude.
This has cost me hours until I found a reference somewhere else pointing into the direction of an old Firefox. BTW: you can use Firefox Portable 19.x.y as well, it'll work.
The NetGear webinterface is completely in javascript and somwhere in processing the result something goes wrong. I had a case open with an engineer who came up with 3.5.6 as well (but I already knew). I have complained that a switch that is still sold is no longer manageable with a normal browser. First response: this switch is EOL, see our list. So I glanced at the list and said: but hey, here is a strange thing... the switch might be EOL but it is also advertised as a switch that is a replacement for another type that is EOL. That is a bit confusing for your dearly appreciated customer.
The last rumour I heard is that a maintenance update for the firmware is being considered to solve this issue.
