Using this site with Safari

I believe the user maybe referencing the Notifications bell icon next to the Messages envelope icon.
If so, this icon is working for me in Safari v13.1. OSX 10.14.6.
I can click on either icon and the function works.
Sign, Maybe look into more of your configuration or Safari before placing blame on NG or apple.

Anyway, does anyone else have trouble activating the bell icon at the top of the screen with Safari? Every time I hover over the bell in Chrome and click it works fine, but when I hover over the bell in Safari some kind of international popup menu appears obscuring the bell.
Can we get NetGear to fix this?
Obviously there's some kind of browser specific code being triggered since I've never seen Safari do this anywhere else.
-- Thanks, Verne
P.S. Will Netgear even promote the RBR850 to a first class citizen? I know they can't sell to many of them because of the outrageous price tag (compared to other wifi mesh routers with a similar feature set), but it would be nice if I didn't have to say I'm still back on my RBR50.

Huh, you're right.
A plain-jane 10.15.5 has no problems.
I wonder what it is that could cause a language pop-up appear whenever I hover over the notification bell icon?

I get that too when I near the bell icon. If your mouse gets closer to the language flag, it seems to come down even though you may not select it. I have to move my mouse to the lower far right up below the bell then the language doesn't pop down. Seems like the language flag icon could be tuned better. Seems too sensitive. Just be sure to move the mouse cursor from below the bell icon.
