Hardware version is 1. I plan to setup 4 VLAN's on each switch as follows 1 default netgear VLAN 260 will be the managment VLAN 360 will be the normal connected device VLAN - for computers ...

Then I should make them VLAN 360 right? not the default 1?
You define this. Can't provide a general rule. If somebody does plug a non-authorized device or an WLAN AP is reset to factory default (ie. by it's local reset button) - where do you want these? Probably not in a productive VLAN ID. Somehwere in a VLAN where you can securely check what is going mad for example I wuld suggest.

but what should I make the rest of the ports, blank, T, or U on each VLAN 1, 260, 360 and 660?
What for are the other ports used for?
The other ports will be use for computers or workstations and I am not sure how to set these ports.
Untagged for the VLAN you want the computer etc. connected to, same PVID.

This answer is getting me closer to what I need to know, thank you.
If I have multiple VLAN's going over a single port, what VLAN PVID should I use 1 or something else or doesn't it matter.
