I'm having the same issue. Seems to be a bad firmware update. Hopefully NG fixes this soon. Factory resetting this is a bad answer.

Hello, 2 months passed, has this GUI issue solved?
I have a similar experience about 5 years ago, at that time, NETGEAR told me my ISP blocked the downloading (however, updating firmware was ok)

Yes.

Realize I'm rather late to this party (sorry ..) but I just got the GUI update note also (July 30,2022) . Not realizing there was a potential issue I blissfully went ahead and downloaded and installed the new GUI version (V1.0.0.423). To my (now) surprise there was no issue with the upgrade and I tried switching from the default English to German (Deutsch), worked fine and had no problem switching back. Since I haven't seen any posts about more recent problems, NETGEAR must have fixed whatever was at issue with it.

That was a short term glitch that didn't last long. Some of us didn't even see it.
