Netgear always delivers.

Whether it's home use or specific business application, I have never had better success than when using any of the Netgear product line. This little Gig switch is no exception - it performs like the 'big boys'.

Better than the rest

I was looking for a Gigabit switch than can definitely push the whole bandwidth through. This cutie's internal circuit is much faster than Gigabit so if you have several Gigabit devices connected to it, it should still be able to give max. throughput without issues. I didn't have good experience with Netgear before but I'd buy this again without hesitation. Metal case is an advantage, the heat can be dissipated better. (My router has a plastic case and it overheats sometimes.) The internal cache is the same as with other brands. The only issue I found is that even though it supports jumbo frames, when I turned them on at my devices, the throughput dropped to about the quarter. I didn't investigate further, my throughput is now constrained at my computers not my switch.

Excellent Quality and Easy to Use

It doesn't get any easier than this. No set-up cable type detection makes this truly plug and play. TD prices are always excellent, so this is a no-brainer... Get it!
