Great home switch with VLAN support! . These things are bullet proof and blow the Cisco LinkSys gear out of the water. If you need the ability for two separate networks to talk to each other (VLANS), This is the switch for you. If all you need is a simple GigE switch, check out the ProCurve 1400-8 G switch.
The ProCurves are build smarter and do not overheat. I've burnt through several Linksys Cisco and Dlink switches. These guys serriosuly need to advertise better. I would have saved 100's if I just purchased a ProCurve to begin with.

Switch strong as a rock and with Vlan capability . This is the perfect switch for someone looking for an affordable managed switch, quite and robust.
Excelent Item . This switch have very good capabilites, vlan, trunk, LACP (Link aggregation or IEEE 802.1AX-2008), runs very cool and is rock solid.

understand trunking is not "trunking" . This is a great switch. I wish, so bad I had found this before I wasted money on my netgear switches. This is so feature rich, I spent quite some time learning how all the features work. You do need another kind of switch to fully use the vlans offered by this unit. I did figure out this trunking is not the cisco type of trunking. If you want the cisco type, it is called "tagged" in the vlan config. This trunking is more like link aggregation. This is a nice feature to have! On a final note, this model has been discontinued. The new HP hotness is the 1810G-8.
My only complaints are. This switch does not support STP, or spanning tree protocol. They have updated the firmware the pass the traffic to prevent a packet storm. Also the IP you use to manage this switch does not support IPv6. This should be really easy to add. I just want it to have a set IPv6 address.
Wonderful unit.

By far the best switch I have owned! . Awesome throughput and very stable. Once I upgraded the firmware it hasn't stalled or crashed on me once (not that it ever should).
If you are serious about home networking, skip the cheap stuff and get this. You will not regret it!

Great switch and I'm out of ports :( . Great 8-port switch. I've owned it for over a year and it remains just warm to the touch. I have several ports at a gig and several at 100FDX. I leave everything at autonegotiate. There were a couple times where I switched off autonegotiate on a port and a particular PC because of an intermittent link outage and I was suspecting a problem with the autonegotiate. But in the end, both times ended up being the same RJ-45 plug at the PC end of the 60 foot CAT-5 cable. After finally cutting it off and crimping on a new connector, my intermittent problem went away. This was one of my gig links. My system maxes out at 450 Mbps point-to-point so I can't test at gig speeds. Inserting the switch did not make any difference which is good. One time, I configured three ports in two VLANs, (i.e. port 1 tagged to VLAN 2; port 2 untagged to default VLAN; port 3 tagged to VLAN 2 and a member of the default VLAN). I could not get it to work with my PCs but I believe my NICs were not working properly with VLAN tags because Wireshark on all three computers never showed me a tagged frame even when I ran straight cable between two PCs configured for tagged VLANs. In any event, while going through all these configuration changes on the switch, it never locked up or acted strangely. The unaffected ports outside my little VLAN test remained functional. So the only gripe I have with small devices like this is that they are too light. They are at the mercy of the weight of the cables plugged into them. They need lead in the bottom to hold them in place. Alrighty then.
