Netgear 8-PORT GIGABIT ETHERNET SWITCH GS608
There's not much really to say about this product, it works exactly as it should really. The Netgear GS08 is a great choice to add some extra ports to your home network inexpensively.
Pros:
- Silent
- Easy to setup and use
- Inexpensive
Cons:
- None really

"Great little network switch,"
This switch has been a great addition to my network . It allows for fast transfer sppeds and i have been using for over 3 months now with no problems. Unluckily it is not wall mountable which would have been useful, but it comes with some legs which can be used to stand it on its side.
Pros:
- Sleek
- small
- easy to use
Cons:
- Not wall mountable

Device is a switch, not a router
Contrary to one of the other reviews, this is a switch, not a router. I have had mine for a while (longer then the warranty) and have had at least one port go bad. Others seem to continue to work. I have both 1GB and 10/100 devices connected.
Pros:
- 1GB
Cons:
- 1 port failed

Disappointed
I was real excited when I purchased this modem router, I thought I got a good one. I do like a lot of the features in the software program that came with it. It shows all the things that are connected and you can name them.

Great item. I bit small
Great item. I bit small than the one I've used for ten years. Works just as well.

Good Value
This is my third GS608 switch. I run two of them on my home network. This one is a replacement to the oldest switch. The old switch was running very slow and hot, so I retired it after about 3 years of service. These switches perform fine for my Cat-6 network and you can't beat the price.

Netgear - GS608 - 8-Port Gigabit Network Switch
Sleek, low profile, low heat, all 8 ports Gigabit Doesn't have adequate weight to even hold itself flat against a desk if the cables are pulling down more than the edge. You can't go wrong with these desktop switches, I bought two for household and I have a *very* information intensive home network.

Does what it's supposed to do. Reliable and bone-simple to install in your network.
It does what it's supposed to do. I've bought several and none have so much as burped. Styling is attractive enough. I like the Netgear brand and this item does not disappoint.

This item slows the network
This item is faulty and runs very slow. It doesn't even go 10Mb let alone 1 Gb. No wonder Netgear no longer sells it.
