 Excellent Switch July 28, 2008
Works great and runs cool. Even works well with a Netgear ReadyNAS Duo, despite what they say on their compatibility list. I contemplated buying a Netgear switch instead but based on their rather poor reviews I steered clear and now am glad I did. I'm about to order another one based on my experience with this one.
Does just what it claims! July 20, 2008
This switch does just what it claims. It does NOT drop the speed of all ports to the speed of the slowest connection. It is capable of multiple port speeds simultaniously. I doubt this switch will disappoint anyone looking for a plug and play gigibit switch!
 It Works Out of The Box July 4, 2008

EDIT: 8/15/08: I originally gave this product 4 stars is because I believedit should not be advertised as an 8 port switch when it only provides 7 usable ports (one port is used to hook up to your internet connection, i.e., router, etc.). Another poster pointed out that some might not need to attach their internet connection to it and will just use it for networking, thereby providing 8 usable ports, and I edited this review in agreement.
It worked out of the box for me-used one 25 ft. RJ45 cat. 5E cable going from my router to my living room, connected it to this switch, and it gave me 7 instant internet ports for the WII, the LCD TV and the satellite receiver (EVERYTHING has some internet function these days). Instant access with no hitch. Very nice.

Easy to set up and mount to wall. "No" setup... just plugged in power and cables. Nice think that I'm saving a bit of energy using the product.
Nice attractive unit... not just a beige box. Same price as "non-green/George Bush type" switches.
It Just Works!! June 26, 2008
To think that one can have Gbit ethernet in the home/small office at such an affordable price is just amazing to me. This switch really gives you no other option for high speed network connectivity. I also own a linksys 8 port and a netgear 8 port and both of them have had the same issue, requiring me to power off/on to restore connectivity. That being said, it could be a bad NIC somewhere on my network. However, I now own three of these 8 port D-Link switches and I have not had to power them down once.
There's really no reason to post pros/cons. This switch offers a complete management-free switched environment that performs up to expectations. I would definitely recommend buying this for any home and/or small office. Especially, if you transfer large files such as videos and/or music and image collections. Also great if you have a central backup repository for PC's/Macs.
