    Works exactly as it needs to straight out of the box. Reliable and stable. White finish is nice and clean and blends with the interior of structured media cabinets well.

    Good little unmanaged (no web interface) switch. Was able to use this for a variety of uses. LAN parties, LAN data transfers between workstations, and configuration of specialized network devices.

    I needed additional ports since the box that AT&T used did not have enough to cover what I needed. This allowed me to expand and have more wired connections in my house.

    Solid SOHO switch

    This is a gigabit ethernet switch for home and small office use. Other than plugging it in, there is really no set up involved. It handles transfer of information between internet gateways, printers, routers, and other computers seamlessly. Even though it is a gigabit switch, it does not transfer data as quickly as some business class gigabit switches I have used.

    The size of this ethernet switch is getting smaller and lighter, and most of all, it does work. I like the physical design of this switch which is a lot better than the previous design.

    Great Plug and Play Switch

    In a time where the choice of cheap 5-port, desktop, GigE switches is plentiful, this one stands out for one simple reason: exterior design. It looks good enough to show off anywhere, and the vertical stand is a great desk-space-saver, something that becomes handier every day. The only case where you wouln't buy this model would be if you need Jumbo Frame support -- but that's something 99% of people with a SOHO setup can't even use (because your standard router for Internet access won-t support it...). So why bother? Definitely my favorite in this price range and feature set. Highly recommended.
