 GS108 -Bad -The other reviewers on this and other sites are correct August 15, 2008
Was defective out of the box and I don't have a receipt so they will not honor the warranty.
Flaky, bad news August 4, 2008
This switch made my network life miserable for a long time with intermittent problems that were not cured by power cycling, changing all cables, changing computers, etc. I didn't realize this switch was my problem for a long time, and now I'm looking for a replacement. It sure won't be another one of these.
good but could be better July 19, 2008
i have two of the gs108 switch, one is the version 1 (larger) and one version 2 (shown in the pic), the version 1 has been working for 3 years now and had no problem at all. the version 2 one just quit yestereday.
the symptom was all of the LEDs blinks at the same time (on - off - on), and the computer shows the network cable was unplugged. did a little bit search and it seems this is a quite common problem for this switch, it was caused by two capacitors (6.3v 1000uF), following others steps i replaced them with two 10v 1000uF, and now everything is workig again!
so if you have similar problem, check the capacitors, unless you can wait for netgear send you a replacement. the two capacitors cost about $4, i'd say cheapter than the shipping cost.
Piece of junk July 12, 2008
Mine lasted 28 months, then bricked with the "green lights of death." Save your money and buy a different switch.
 Inexpensive, reliable equipment June 26, 2008
I have been using a Netgear 24-port Gigabit switch ( Netgear JGS524NA ProSafe 24-Port Gigabit Rackmount Switch ) for about two years, and added this one in June 2008. Never had any problems, and as others have pointed out, pretty much plug-n-play; with auto uplink and small but readable lights, these are hassle free unmanaged switches. Our network consists of Macs, Linux, Windoze, and NAS boxes -- all seem to play well. I am also a big fan of the metal enclosures as they add a degree of sturdiness that plastic units can't muster. I have used these for portable temporary net expansion and the metal has made a difference in certain mishaps between having a switch and throwing away a broken switch.
