Easy setup and it's a name you can trust. We have this switch for over 3 years and it works great.
I asked them how I was supposed to work for a week and a half while I waited. So what do I do for work for the week and a half while I wait for the new one. I sent it back and got another. The tech said, "Well, you could buy another switch in the meantime." What. They would not cross ship a new one to me. I bought this switch about 18 months ago.
However, the one they replaced it with had something rattling around inside it when I got it. They said they would expedite and cross ship if I paid a charge of $74.99. It went out 6 months ago. In other words, they wanted me to disconnect the existing switch, send it back to them, and have them ship the new one to me 5-7 days later. I replied, "Yes, maybe I'll buy a switch that doesn't break down every 6 months." Don't buy it. They have a lifetime warranty, and they replaced it.
Then, it failed.
Unfortunately the switch is larger than the one it replaced and we had to get a deeper wall rack for it, but I would purchase again regardless. The switch has worked flawlessly.
Good web administration faster and easy to setup
In fact, it works ONLY with IE on a PC.Given that many other Linksys products work with Firefox, I was pretty surprised.Linksys needs to have a talk with the clue fairy and cut some new firmware. The fan is surprisingly loud, even for a rack-mounted device intended for a machine room.However, the deal breaker for me (I'm returning the unit I bought) is that the web management interface does not work with Firefox.
