Amazing switch for the price. I use features such as static mac tables, port protection, NTP servers, syslog, etc. They all actually work on this switch. I found a firmware bug, submitted a support ticket, anf they included the fix in the next firmware release. Now that's support. Very happy.

Provides POE power Good features Features actually work Good support Metal case

The GS110TP is an entry-level eight-port Gigabit Ethernet ‘smart' switch, with web-based management capabilities that offer a cheaper alternative to fully-managed Layer 2 or 3 switches.

Compact; silent; PoE on all ports; power-saving features; outstanding documentation

Poor admin interface usability

i bought this to have a poe switch on my desk. it fanless. easy to use. easy to setup. dont required console/switch knowledge. plug in and it work. can access the web interface if you need advenced management.

good smb switch; fanless (silence); fit under my desk

Whether used in 'dumb' or 'smart' mode, Netgear's ProSafe GS110TP offers good value for smaller businesses looking to add traffic management and/or power-over-Ethernet capabilities to their networks.

Excellent documentation and support; Comprehensive web-based management; Compact; Silent; Eight PoE ports

Quirky management interface

Network switches are not reviewed by the press that often, but they are a necessary part of many home or small business networks, so we need to take a look now and then at what's available, what works, and how well they work.

Excellent build quality; Comprehensive software controls; Flexible security features; Good throughput on TCP/IP traffic; Very little heat output; Expected long-term reliability; Software ease-of-use; Fiber optic ports; if you need them; Easy setup with appropriate defaults; Excellent documentation,...

UDP performance lags way behind TCP/IP; Price may be an issue for home users; Didn't beat my unmanaged switch on performance

I use most of the GSM and GS series switches on a daily basis in a wide variety of installations. The good thing about this particular switch is the familiar GUI, and that it supports Layer 2 VLAN port access and trunking. The SFP ports are a bonus at this price point also.

The price/size/speed for a Netgear GS family switch is just right

PoE budget is <45 W

For a 8 port gig switch w/POE under $200.00 the switch works better then a smart switch for 3 times the money. I haven't rebooted the switch since installed. and not one complaint just praise from all the residents. Netgear gives you more bang for your buck with all the extras.

Worked right out of the box with PoE, expansive configuration options. Netgear really went above and beyond with packaging a managed eight port gigabit with PoE and two SFP switch into such a small package for such an affordable price.

If all you want is a simple L2 POE switch you'll find this to be a good one -- probably " or 5 stars." HOWEVER -- and this is important -- if you want to actually CONFIGURE the switch and make it behave even a little bit differently than the way it came out of the box -- set up VLANs, change between...

Many in production & all working flawlessly. Netgear provide lifetime hardware support & free software updates. The big guys don't come near that level of support!
