 Disappointing - Netgear aint what it used to be... :-( September 30, 2008
I used to swear by Netgear during my years of corporate IT servitude, but it seems that they've really abandoned any quality goals when it comes to their consumer grade equipment. This is the third (and last) piece of almost brand new Netgear equipment that is sitting in my parts closet unused.
Every couple of hours it will disconnect all the users/devices attached to it. This disconnect would last anywhere from 15 seconds to a minute or more. Definitely puts a kink in large file transfers, video streaming and online gaming.
I got a D-Link gigabit switch to replace it and couldn't be happier. D-Link DGS-2208 8-Port 10/100/1000 Desktop Switch I must admit I prefer the build and look of the Netgear (it's solid and the rear facing LEDs are great) as opposed to the D-Link's plasticky lightness, but it's all about performance, not looks now, isn't it?
Died after 1 year September 15, 2008
Worked great for about one year. Then the flashing green lights of death that others have documented started. Just thought I'd add my vote to avoid this product.
Amazingly simple desktop switch September 8, 2008
The Netgear GS108 ProSafe 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Desktop Switch is quick and easy to set up and get running. Actually, plug it in and you're set to go.
This is a nice little switch for a home or small office. I have set up several of these switches in both locations, the first one over a year ago. Absolutely no problems.
For the money, it's a thumbs up!
 Fast August 23, 2008

Was defective out of the box and I don't have a receipt so they will not honor the warranty.
