There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Out of nowhere, the switch has been consistently dropping connections every hour. Resetting the switch back to factory settings (which they already were) didn't solve the issue so it must be faulty internal circuitry. Unfortunately I can't return it since it's too late so I have to knock it to one star. A device that carries a high price tag should work longer then six months. I went back to my $8 D-Link switch which has worked for years. I'll just invest in a tap instead of a managed switch for the port mirroring capabilities.
I liked the fact that I could add the switch to a rack in the future if I wanted. My current set up is not on a rack but I do have plans for one in the future. Great product and would buy this one again.
Cheers
I like the metal construction, but I wish the power connector was on the same side as the Ethernet ports. As it is there are cables on BOTH sides of it.
UPDATE 1. After a couple of days, the switch slowed down to about 100mbps for some reason. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and the speeds went back to normal. Disappointing. Perhaps I got a bad switch a second time?
UPDATE 2. Definitely it slows down to 100 mbps and it requires a reboot every couple of days or so.
UPDATE 3. Replaced the replacement, but the issue persists: it works fine for a little while, it could be a couple of hours or a couple of days, and then it slows down to 100mbps. So no idea what is going on.
Avoid. It is a waste of your money.
I have reached the support for the igmp issue (which is in the spec) - the answer was "why do you need igmp?"
