Everything I needed it to be!
By George Warren
I'm not a techno, however, this switch is exactly what I needed to fix my failed switch made by 3Com. I'm hoping that this one lasts longer than my first one.

This switch is very buggy
By Gilbert Gutierrez
You would think that this switch would be very simple, and it should be. The software on the switch is very buggy specifically when it comes to DHCP. I cannot get the switch to obtain an iP address and whats worse, I lose access when I do. Netgear knows that to be an issue and the latest firmware (5.0.2.33) on Netgear's web site is supposed to address this issue. I installed it with no success at resolution. I had to program a static IP into the device to allow myself to access the device. (When the device is in DHCP mode, the device is accessible by its default IP, but as soon as it sees a DHCP server access is lost and it does not get an IP or even request one.)I purchased this switch to simply power some PoE phones for a customer and while I was able to get this to work with some effort, I would not recommend this switch for anyone who has limited experience. Small offices that would tend to use this switch have flat networks and just need a simple switch to connect devices and in the case of a PoE switch power their devices. Why Netgear adds so much complication to their switch is beyond me because no large enterprise is going to buy this dud.The device I reviewed was a v2 version of the device. At this time, Netgear has software for a v1 and a v2.

By This Random Guy
My boss wanted us to be an all-Cisco shop, but for a 50 person company and with less than ten employees in this remote office, with less than 50% projected growth y-o-y, it didn't make sense to pay Cisco prices. We're using this as a PoE switch to power a dozen VoIP phones.This switch works well, it has a clunky web interface like any other SMB market switch, but who spends much time with that, beyond first setup?Compared to the nearest Cisco, the Cisco SF200-24P Switch 24 10/100 Ports, Smart Switch, PoE, 2 Combo Mini-GBIC Ports, Warranty, One Year Tech Support - SLM224PTNA, this has more power per port, PoE on every port, and a higher max power output than any others I've found. And reasonaby priced. Fans weren't noticeable over the other server rack fans, admittedly not running at full PoE power.
