NETGEAR ProSAFE GS116Ev2 16-Port Gigabit Web Managed Switch

Great piece of tech, performs well, fast and has VLAN support (yay)! The UI isn't amazing but it gets the job done.

We ended up replacing a computer thinking it wasn't working when in fact it was the port on our switch that was bad. I did loop tests and determined that only 3-4 of the 16 ports were working. Created a ticket on Netgear's website, got an email that I would be contacted.

Plug and Play Well Built

I wall mounted this internet switch which replaced three various smaller capacity switch boxes that were daisy chained together. Plug it in and let it rip. Nothing else to do but watch the blinking lights. Very sturdy well built unit.

Fixes the problem and stays fixed

These switches have proved solid for me over the years. I was happy that Staples had one in stock, so I could get the network back up quickly and not have to worry about it going back down.

Had It When We Needed It

Our data processing system went down immediately when our switch failed. I thought we were going to have a replacement shipped to us overnight, but Office Max had the item in stock. This allowed us to continue operating, and our down time was only a couple of hours instead of 24 hours.
Pros:
  • Easy to Use

Excellent Lan Switch!

Does exactly what you would expect. Currently feeding 9 devices with gigabit lan and doing so intelligently, so that power is only supplied to those ports that are active.

Maybe coincidence - but the unit I got wouldn't play nice with my PVR and my MAG254 iPtv died the moment I put it in. Since the NetGear come so highly rated - must be something with my unit.

This is my second Netgear prosafe 16 port switch. I bought this to connect my nas server with LAG support. Works very well and file transfers are very fast. Low power consumption and a fanless design make this a good addition to a home or business gigabit network.
Pros:
  • Small form factor
  • Very fast
  • Supports LAG and VLAN
  • Green power
Cons:
  • No rack ears
