Well, I have been trying to get a backup file out of this so I can
send it to you, but so far when I try to do http/https backup it
fails the only thing is I get a network error, and if I look in the
switch logs, it says it cannot find the file.

I have a SG300-28 at home, it was never this cantankerous,
I can do file backups and uploads to it with no issues whatsoever.

They must have cut some major corners somewhere with these
switches.
