GS748TPS Vlan not passing to SonicWave 224w AP

We currently are passing two Vlans (4 - Guest & 6 - Corp) across our two netgear stacks consisting of IDF - 2 GS748TPS units and MDF - 3 GS748TPS units.  We have multiple SonicWall ACE Access Points connecting to (T) tagged netgear switch ports working well.  We recently added two SonicWall SonicWave 224w Access Points with the netgear switch ports configured exactly the same way as the ACE APs but for some reason Vlan 6 (Corp) is not passing the correct Vlan tag to the wireless laptops on Vlan 6 - Corp.  The only difference in the Vlans is Vlan 4 obtains it's IP/DNS from the SonicWall firewall and Vlan 6 obtains it's IP/DNS from an internal DHCP/DNS Windows Server.  On these new SonicWave APs the Vlan 4 - Guest wifi is working fine but Vlan 6 will not access the internet.  On Vlan 6 a laptop will pull it's IP and DNS info but the Windows laptop wifi indicator shows "No Internet, Secure".  Any help would be appreciated!

Issue was not related to Netgear switches but was a result of how the new Sonicwave 224w AP handles mac address proxying.  We allow wireless clients access based on adding wireless mac addresses to the Default SonicPoint ACL Allow Group.  The new 224w APs needed their mac added to this group and also had to verify their Address Objects were showing an ip address for each of the vlan/wlan they were associated with.
