    To disable a port’s stacking mode and change it into regular gigabit Ethernet port, do the following commands (using port 27 as an example):


    (FSM7328S ) #config
    (FSM7328S Config ) #stack
    (FSM7328S Config-stack ) #stack-port 1/0/27 ethernet

      Based on my experience with current and older models (i.e. GSM7328FS, that ran 8.0.x, yours goes up to 7.x): After changing the mode of the port, check the output of "show stack-port". Many Netgear stackable switches require a reboot in order to switch such ports between stack and ethernet mode.
