    Ah, the good ol' Netgear unmanaged switch. The right price point for non-mission critical applications. This will likely last for a number of years and be a great bargain.

    This Netgear 8 port switch is great for Home Office use, Needed to have dedicated wired network connection for reliable VPN connection to the office, and this fit the bill. When not working for the office, it's handling all the normal home network essentials for TV's, set top boxes, external NAS storage, and an Xbox. The 8 ports are sufficient, and the form factor is small enough to keep tucked away but close at hand. The limited lifetime warranty is a nice piece of mind too, just register your hardware.

    This unmanaged switch truly does not need to be managed. I was replacing an identical unit that died by lightning . Unfortunately I trashed my old unit and read AFTERWARDS that there was a lifetime manufacturers warranty . Such is life.
