    Netgear makes great, rock-solid- consumer level switches. Never had one fail ... and I've installed many.

    It's perfect for my small home network. 8 fast Ethernet ports with PoE give me privacy, security, and remote power to run the wildlife camera I've wanted for years.

    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+

    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.

    Overall this was an excellent experience. I looked the product up online and it showed it was in stock. I arrived and was directed to the exact location. I had spoken with the manufacturer’s tech support prior to all this to confirm the specifications were what I needed. My wait time was very minimal. I got back and was able to effortlessly hook up and put into operation right away. Fantastic product. I wish I could give more states because it is not that common that things go this well.
