NETGEAR Community Web Site Problems
It is exceedingly shortsighted to have such a very limited selection of locatons. For instance, this subject has no appropriate category.
Worse yet, the options for labels are misplaced and in...
Really? Well consider that I have a GS510LTP and it is a smart managed switch. Now exactly where in this listing would that be found? Right, it isn't there. Stupid and worthless list. The categorization remains indefensible. All your posts just supports my position.
The fact of the matter is that this is an attempt to re-invent the forum and it is a sad failure.
(I even tried to quote and it wouldn't let me insert my text. That indicates a poor editor. Imagine an editor that scrolls from top to bottom and then jumps to top again. Talk about bizarre.)
And no, the labels are not a floating frame to the right. They move depending on zoom level. Another dumb design idea.
And comma deliminator instead of spacing? Why isn't that described or automatically added if necessary? Yet another dumb idea.
A 1024x768 resolution is not a relic of the past. You obviously don't know what you're talking about. All resolutions are useful in their place. If content does not conform, it is not properly designed.
And just for the cherry on top of the cake, I clicked on your screenshot and got a pop-up window. It gave me the option to expand it. When I did that, the exit button fails to work. It must be normalized first. But even more unbelievable, the screenshot cannot be opened again without reloading the web page! Talk about even more bizarre!
This just doesn't work, and I'm not surprised. Nobody at Netgear knows how to program for home theatre presentation.
All switches except of the gaming ones are under Business (told ya it's not great, eh?).
Why on earth was the community section titled "Smart Plus And Smart Pro Managed Switches Forum"? I don't know. Formal designation for these product lines are "Smart Managed Plus" and "Smart Managed Pro" ... "Forum" can go anyway (or has to be added everywhere) ... let the community admins make it "Smart Managed Plus and Smart Managed Pro" - without detroying the links and references to the URL https://community.netgear.com/t5/Smart-Plus-and-Smart-Pro-Managed/bd-p/business-smart-plus-click-switches
Subtitle is worked, too.
"Discuss Smart Pro Switches "T", and Plus Switches "E" including Local and Remote Management" should be "Discuss Smart Managed Pro "T", and [Smart Managed] Plus "E" swiches including Local and Remote Management"
Don't blame the messenger - these are text snippets from my earlier attempt to wake up Netgear.

- Ref the labels - my browsers add the , delimiter automatically. Somehow (mouse over?) it says this, too.
Last but not least: Yes - leaving your unlucky display resolution alone - I'm 100% with you!slow_speed Not defending anyone - when you look at other communities you realize the same SaaS with very similar mistakes are in place everywhere:
slow_speed scratch SMF, phpBB, ... et all - for many different reasons I don't want to discuss here.
Agreed. They really need to wake up.
