This Netgear switch has been in service for well over a year and continues to work flawlessly. As with any plug-n-play device, when it works perfectly (as descibed in their literature and manual) from day one, life is good and you are happy with the purchase.

Great affordable switch!
l purchased 3 of these to replace some TRENDnets that weren't compatible with my network. These worked perfectly and they're even quite nice looking! l used these on an old 1OBaseT network, so they're plenty fast - l would think that even for a 1OOBaseT network these would be hard to beat for function and affordability. The only thing l don't like is the mail-in rebate part - l hate mail-in rebates and try to avoid them whenever possible. Companies use them to take advantage of their customers - they're a free source of money for them and they know only about half of deserving customers will go through the rigmarole to send everything in and wait forever for their money. While that spoils the purchase process, it doesn't change the fact that these are great switches.

Nice switch - desktop
This is a nice switch that l use on my desktop for several ethernet connections. Has a stand that keeps in upright position. Not sure if they comes in black - would have preferred black to match other equipment. But works great!

This switch worked right out of the box the first time it was plugged in. l have had it for over a month and no problems so far!
Great buy!

Works as expected
l plugged it in and it worked as expected. There is not really a lot to a switch.
The lights are VERY bright. l have this in my basement with my router so the lights are not an issue. However, if you put this on your desk where you were working, l could see this possible being an issue.
