    Switch went out, need one quick, and Best Buy always keep stock on that stuff. Plugged it in and everything is back up and running. When phones and cameras are on POE you need to be up.

    Meh! NOT impressed with product at price I paid since Netgear decided to ONLY INCLUDE the weakest option for power supply. The included power supply is a "throw away" option in my humble opinion. As purchased, (IMHO) the max purchase price should have been $99.00 AND included a better power supply. If fit the need at the time (needed POE w/at least 8 ports late one night). Otherwise, I wish that I had waited and bought a better POE+ switch with more ports and power to POE+

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Practical solution for needing a switch with PoE ports. I was in an unfamiliar area when a switch died on me. i definitely needed PoE and the 4 ports was enough as that's all I needed for VOIP phones.

    Wanted to direct wire computers, printers, and tv's and needed this to do so. It's much more stable than WIFI only. Now the Tv's don't buffer when watching.
