customer.service@netgear.com does not reply to emails - is that no longer the appropriate address?

Still the same address. Keep in mind it can take several days before email will be replied.

I would very mush like my switches to not be registered to someone else, especially as Netgear now enables remote administration of the switches.

Keep in mind Netgear will unlikely not re-register these switches to your account -  mainly because of the life time warranty remains with the original buyer, and is not transferable.

Its a little bit different with Insight. In the case the seller has not removed the devices from Insight, Netgear support is able to do this, once you managed to provide proof of ownership (to avoid abuse!) to Netgear. A device previously added to Insight will be taken back to the account and control of the original user once you change from local to Insight management from the local Web UI.

You should always be able to add a device with the Serial Number (and sometimes additionally the MAC address) to your Insight account, regardless of the device Netgear account registration status.

How do I discover, add, and register switches, access points, and Orbi Pro WiFi Systems in Insight?
