Hi btmckee9,
Welcome to the community! :)
Since you purchase your GS108v4 switch last August 6, 2016 and if ever you are the original owner, you are entitled with a Lifetime Hardware Warranty on your GS108v4 switch. Kindly check this article for more information.
Based from your initial post, it seems the GS108v4 is faulty. With regard to this, I suggest you to login to your MyNETGEAR account then register the serial number of your GS108v4 switch. Then, open a chat or online case with NETGEAR Support and state the status of your GS108v4 switch. Be reminded that you will need to submit a .doc or .pdf copy of the Proof of Purchase or Sales Invoice of your GS108v4 switch for warranty verification. If ever the hardware warranty is still valid then an online replacement will follow.

Thanks for checking up. Family visiting. Busy at work... I haven't had a chance to register it. Perhaps I have some time now.
For future reference, it is not necessary to call tech support for this device.
Go to this web page:
https://www.netgear.com/support/product/GS108v4.aspx
Then click "Guided Assistance" and follow the prompts. You can get an RMA and they will ship you a new unit with a return label.
You do have to give a credit card number and they will charge you for the replacement unit if you do not return the defective unit within ten days.
Thanks for the feedback. I believe that you are entitled with Complementary Next Business Day Replacement wherein its needed to provide a credit card number as collateral. You will need to return the defective unit within ten days the moment you received your replacement GS108v4 switch.
Let us know if you have already received your replacement GS108v4 switch and if its working fine.

I just installed the replacement. It's up and running.
The RMA was fast and I shipped back the old one with a shipping label they sent with the new one.
Thanks for your support!
