My Auto repair shop was down. Cable internet was giving trouble. When that was fixed, I wasnt getting signal through my 10 year old Netgear switch. I replaced the unit with a new switch and we are once again up and running. Unit came with a lifetime warranty. Just cant beat it!!
I have a good Netgear router and also a good Netgear switch, but with a new 2 LANs port NAS, I needed something more to have advantage on Port Trunking function. Have to stream fun for children as well as stuff for my freelance work were not always manageable. However, I came across a Netgear forum where a guy suggested to "manage" the port trunk function with the Smats Manage GS108T instead of disrupting the entire system is spend a lot of money. Very good suggestion! GS108Tv2 is very good product, easy to use like a cherry on the cake. The remaining part is Netgear.
A breeze to configure and setup. QoS works very well, DHCP reservations simple. The only thing that could improve this product is if the power connector were something less prone to falling out than a barrel connector.
