As a network engineer, I am very familiar with what must occur in a network and what is expected of a switch. What is not expected is a switch that does not even operate. Our business is 2 hours from Best Buy.

NOTHING

EVERYTHING

.....except when a client of mine was struck by lightning. But Netgear quickly came to the rescue and shipped a new unit out overnight. Previously, I had been a DLink fanboi for all small business networking products.

Price is great; Warranty is outstanding; Does what its supposed to without whining or needing constant reboots

Nothing; Purchased at least 40 of these over the past few years and never had an issue....

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Easily Expanded; Easy To Setup; Fast; Reliable; Simple; Small

This is an excellent little switch for offices which don't require the features offered in managed switches. The 48GBPS backplane is overly ample. Given the way collisions impact ethernet performance, there's no possible way you could ever fully utilize that backplane.

Great Product and well priced. Good value for small businesses..

My office has used Netgear ethernet switches for a long time. They were generally reliable. The only failure one of them had was a cooling fan failure. Early Fast ethernet (100Mbps) model has two small cooling fans and they stopped working.

Solid construction; Good brand reliability; Reasonable price

Noisy cooling fans

Purchased two. Arrived in two days! Plugged in and worked. Have three more to purchase and it will be these!

A full table of gigabit. Get your CAT6 cable ready for some blazing fast throughput. Good quality switch. Put it in the rack!

Not much to comment this is an unmanaged plug and play 24 port L2 switch...performance appears to be good, only thing I do not like is that the activity light is behind the port number plate so it is difficult to visually see if there is activity on the port...other than that good for the money.

Bought a few of these now. Quality item and easy to use. If you have a single LAN cable and wasnt to add 4 items to the internet you just use these. Needs a power supply near by and adapter is suplied. Easier and more reliable than wifi we have found and enables all those extra items to connect.
