Product has great connectivity and smooth transition....

Great Product...

This product has been a lifesaver for our small office

Awesome Product

I ordered this Netgear 8 port switch for my office to hook up several printers, a computer.  It was shipped and received by the advertised time and I had no problems setting it up.

8 port

I have this switch configured for two virtual networks.  One is the ISP "Internet" side of my router and the other is my local network.    Both run at full gigabit speed and it only took a few minutes to figure out how to set it is.  This switch has a very easy learning curve.

Easy to use and fast

This switch worked right out of the box. It is high quality, reliable and fairly easy to manage. I'd recommend this.

Very good switch

Great price, great speeds, easy to use, great vlan management, good QoS, reliable.

Great!

Vest way to have your own network is to use quality products and i always go with Netgear and this switch is great to manage my needs!

Best Ethernet Switch!

The switch is great. Performance is awesome. Best of it is, netgear has best Customer support.

Best performance!

I replaced my switch with this one  because it was nearly impossible for me to know the connection speeds of the  devices I had plugged into it. Now I know exactly what the connection speed it of every device. This already helped me identify a few cables that needed to be replaced for optimal performance. I wish I bought it sooner.

A great switch with helpful management features

I always buy Netgear switches because I have never gotten a bad one in my 40 years of buying.  THANKS Netgear

Netgear - YES

im still working on getting it totally set up the way i want but it is fairly easy to setup if you go step by step at what you want to do im not using the setup wizard im doing a custom setup

GS308E review

Nice managed switch. Web interface allows management and VLAN config. Can be monitored with Insight app. Quiet and easy to. Set up.

Good solid switch

Switched it out with my 5 port! Super easy to switch out and reconfigure!!

Super easy plug and play

This is the 4th one of these I?ve purchased.   Being sble to login to the seitch allows me to catch bad ethernet cards easily.

Number4

This is an excellent switch. My previous 5-port switch was full, and some ports didn't support devices I had tried using with it. With two different port groupings, this switch handled all of my requirements immediately upon plugging it in!

8-port gigabit switch

Easy to install and set up.  The 8 ports give me plenty of space for all my devices.

I was unable o access the GUI for the switch,  Netgear support ticket resolution was to return the device for another.  I hope the replacement is not faulty.

Managed Switch was unmanagable

Directions and Software tools provided were accurate and easy to use locally and remotely to manage the switch.

Easy to setup managed switch

If all you need is a 1Gb switch, then you can't really go wrong with this one. We have a couple of these switches in our home, now that we're both working from home all the time and there are a lot of devices passing a lot of data traffic throughout the house and from/into the outside world. I love that there is some management of the switch available, especially at such a low price. Frankly, our next step will be a fully managed 10Gb switch but for the moment, the Netgear is awesome.

Great little managed switch

It works so well and was so easy to setup I went back and purchased the 16 port version!

Great switch

Plug and play is the way to go.  This device was easy to setup and works great. I wouldn?t waste my money on anything else.

Awesome

The switch works well and the management interface is easy to use.  But the device lacks basic features, like forcing a port to operate at gigabit speeds.

Good, but lacking basic features

I needed a more than basic switch to implement a simple set of VLANs on my home network (long story. Purchasing two Netgear smart switches fit the bill perfectly. 15 minutes after unpack I had my network configured and running perfectly.

Just Right

I researched and was led to believe (like many others after searching for an answer to why) that this supported LACP / LAGG (LAG) that would allow dual ethernet out to my SEEED that has two ethernet and can handle this protocol. Oh well, my fault for not researching, but hopefully you read this and buy with that extra knowledge.

Great smart switch, lacks LACP LAGG protocol

I have installed It, it was plug and play. I hadn't any problems configuring the device. The functions the management gives are top. Best decision, to buy the router from Netgear!

Very nice device

Works perfectly right outs the box, excellent price for a solid product.  Thanks

Works perfectly right outs the box

Not enough, should have bought the 16-port, works great!

8-port

No worries at all here. This is a vary solid switch. Very stable and a good performer with great features.

A solid switch

Great and inexpensive managed switch.  Easy to setup for home use.  Has gigabit speeds and stays cool and quiet.
