Good Buy [Posted on 2007-05-24] I was looking for a switch for my business network and this gets the job done.
con
-switch has to be run inside a router or a special modem if not used with a router
Pleased [Posted on 2007-06-27] This switch is very handy for business meetings and since it has 16 ports it has enough capacity to meet everyone's needs. We carry it back and forth between conference rooms so it's nice that it has a compact and sturdy metal case. It's also nice that it has a cut-out for installing a cable lock (although we don't use it). No problems to report so I'd recommend it.
Runs hot [Posted on 2007-07-25] This switch worked fine for about a year, but it always ran hot, which is probably what killed it. I had two of these and both died.
Two died within a year for me also [Posted on 2007-12-15] I just had my second one of these die within a year and was surprised to see that another reviewer had exactly the same problem. They definitely do run hot, and they definitely die much too soon!
Runs hot, warranty replacement was fast [Posted on 2008-06-17] This unit runs VERY hot, almost too hot to touch. After a few ports went out I called for a warranty replacement and received one that still runs hot. I expect I will have to call about this again in the future.
As prices fall this one may not be worth the cash.
