    Hi jsit ,

    Sorry about the experience on activation key of my.netgear.com.

    And this probably issue of my.netgear.com is under analysis , we will update to you while get feedback from developer team.

     

    Otherwise, I have a workaround to get activation key for you.

    I will take about 5 minutes for you and No need to connect switch with Internet.

    Please reference following step to get the key, it's free to get this workaround works.

     

    1.  Install NETGEAR insight application from iOS App Store,

                                                     or from Android Google play store.

    2.  Login with NETGEAR account which registered this switch GS110TPv3.

    3.  After login with NETGEAR account successful.

         Please click on the switch name under "My Other NETGEAR Products"

    4.  Please click on the button of "Registation Key".After insight load the screen of device.

    5.  You will find the Registation Key（activation key）for your device GS110TPv3.

    6.  Please remember this key and keep it private not share to others.

         Then Input the Key on Switch Local GUI to unlock all GUI functionality.

    7.  Enjoy with GS110TPv3.

    Hope it works for you.

jsit,

 

Got an update from the higher tier of NETGEAR Support that a new firmware will be released soon (no ETA yet) that will address this issue. I will post further details here as soon as I got updates.

Not sure on how a switch not able to reach the Internet can magically check the MyNetgear registration or fetch the required registration key automatically by a firmware update, isn't it? 

The problem with the registration key must be addressed in Negear's support processes, and the ability to request the key required must be available direct to the user, without going over Netgear's support channel.
