Cisco products have always done well for me. This one was not a disappointment. The network is just as reliable as it was before.
It is what it is and does what it's supposed to. I kept looking for a manual, but there isn't one (not that there needs to be one, quick setup is all you can do).This comes with rack mounting hardware if you want to, but also sits nicely on a desk or shelf.
16 ports is what I needed with a little room for expansion. I bought this switch to replace a very old 3Com Superstack II 10Mbit 24 port switch in my house.
Given the bump from 10- to 100 Mbit, there is a noticeable increase in transfer speed across the network. Setup was a snap as it's not a managed switch.
I hooked it into my WRT54GS, plugged everything in and it all worked. FYI: this switch is silent (the old 3Com had a very loud fan), so I'm noticing other noises in my computer lab.What else can I say.
And it's Cisco.Notes (some may say cons): This is not a Gigabit switch and has nothing to do with wireless, but it's not supposed to.
