"Excellent Design and Value"
An excellent inexpensive no-hassle networking device constructed of metal that fits perfectly into my home networking system. I recommend this to anyone!

"reliable switch at a good price"
I have purchased many switches and have found the Netgear ones such as this 8 port to be very dependable. As with all lan switches however, even these are vulnerable to electrical surges so they should be installed behind high quality surge protection.

"Netgear FS108, quiet, cool, easy"
Please note that they are and apparently have been shipping a later model than that pictured/described. The box is marked ProSafe 8 Port Fast Ethernet Switch FS108 v2. The unit is smaller (6'W x 4"D x 1"H), in a metalcase and has an external power supply (wall wart). Here is a link to HP's site;
http://www.netgear.com/products/details/FS108.php

It requires no configutation to set up as all ports are auto sensing for speed (10/100Mbps) and Auto Uplink for connection to PC, Modem (cable/DSL), or other devices with either straight or crossover cables. Simply plug and play in about 5 to 10 minutes.

Speed tests indicate no change in upload/download for my PC. It runs very cool as opposed to reports on other Netgear models. Have only had it installed a short time so I have no reliability info. Note that the warranty on the unit is quite long (5 years unit, 2 years power adapter)

"it's good, but pls get 2A power supply instead"
I purchased this switch 3 years ago
happy with it, however, the supplied power adaptor seems not to provide enough current, it runs hot
it seems to have more current power adaptor to run (at least 2A, do not use the supplied adaptor)
now I install it vertically on the wall, just warm to touch (just use 3 out of 8)
for more stable operation, a stronger power supply is recommended (at least 12-15V 2A)

"Great and solid performance"
An incredible product, currently running on a home linux network, works great and stays up and working for long, even for burning CD-ROMs through NFS... Great product!

What our customer's say!

"Very simple and solid", To set up this switch required just plugging in and it worked. Since I've installed it, I have not had to touch it once. I am very happy with this product.

"Netgear switches rock!", We now use nothing other than Netgear switches for all our small-mid sized networking requirements. They are solid reliable and work in all conditions.

"Netgear FS108", These work great. I buy quite a few of these a year for use in our IT department.

"Great Switch", This is one of the better switches I have owed. The auto uplink works great. I accidently plugged in a cross over to one of my computers and it worked just fine. This is a great switch for anyone needing a small switch.

"Power Problems", The power connector on my FS108 is very sensitive - try to shift the unit or move the power cord in any way and it goes into a fit, flashing all lights and all connected devices indicate they have lost their network connection. My friend reports the same problems with his. Mine is being relegated to the spares drawer as soon as I purchase a replacement - not another Netgear. A shame, it is otherwise a nice switch.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"Why buy Netgear over Linksys?", ...I ordered a Netgear FS-108 which worked perfectly out of the box and has continued to work without one single hitch ... I'm about ready to buy another Netgear unit and the warranty ... is five years on the Netgear versus one on Linksys.

"Simple Plug and Play", Nice little Ethernet switch box. No set up required. Just plug it into an Ethernet network. It appears to work just as advertised; I can transfer files between computers at near 100 Mbps. Note that although the model number has remained FS108, my newer box purchased Mar-2002, has a small power brick and runs nice and cool. I had an older FS108 that had a way bigger power brick and ran hotter than you would expect, as mentioned in earlier reviews.

"Solid performance for small networks", The NetGear FS108 is a great Fast Ethernet switch for small workgroups, featuring a sturdy construction (from the metal casing to the RJ45 connectors) and excellent performance. Packet forwarding rates are what you would expect for under 10 dollars per port, and I experienced no problems whatsoever in hooking up machines with many different brands of network cards. Even mixing cards with different speed ratings caused no issues, unlike with some other cheap 10/100 Ethernet switches I could mention. The only concerns I have with this unit are that it sometimes seems to forward certain unicast packets to all switch ports for no apparent reason, and that it runs extremely hot, as another review already mentioned.

As for some negative points mentioned by the other reviews: the switch works just fine with non-Windows machines (I would expect someone running multiple OSes to be able to troubleshoot simple connectivity issues, without resorting to technical support, which typically tends to be "Windows only" for pretty much *any* product...) and, while indeed not supporting full-duplex 100Mb/s non-blocking switching across all ports concurrently, this is not something you would expect from a workgroup-class switch anyway, nor something most users will ever need.

In short, if you're looking for an affordable way to build a well-performing small 10/100BaseT network, the NetGear FS108 is the way to go!

"Not compatable", Just a warning to those who don't run Widows. I purchased this switch to use on my home network which consisits of MAC OS X, Solaris, OpenBSD, and Linux. This network was running fine on a hub, but it didn't run at all with this switch. I talked to NetGear and they told me my OSes were not supported by there equipment. I find that statment pretty suspect as a switch is a switch. But at anyrate they were unwilling to help me out. So if you don't run windows don't buy NetGear.

"Great Switch! But runs HOTTT!", Features 8 ports of 10/100 Full-duplex ability. It comes in very durable metal casing and feels somewhat heavy. It is truly plug and play. Compared to my generic (TrendNet 5-port 10/100 full-duplex switch) it blows it out of the water. I get better pings across my home network and when loaded with 7 computers transfering files at 100mBits full-duplex it shines! The only con is that it runs HOT! Be sure to place it where it can breathe and not next to anything heat-sensitive.
