Pros & Cons

Pros

The original million seller in this category. Item was delivered on time and packaged correctly. Work as expected, no issues, just plugged and running.

Inethernet switch is much larger than the equivalent 8-port smart switch. Auto sensing ports are a far cry from the crossover cables from yesteryear. Supports 100mb and 1gb devices, several power-over-ethernet surveillance cameras. Comes with rack mou... Read More

Quality

Well made easy to introduce into your home network

Unplugging the switch for 10 seconds clears the problem for about a month then the problem repeats

Price

It is worth every penny really good unit

The price is ridiculously low for such a full featured switch

I needed a little costeffective unit to serve a little server farm at home

Right item right price expeditious delivery simple set up literal plug in and play without software bought a right angle power ... Read More

Shipping

Received on time and was easy to install

I took me longer to get the router out of the shipping package than it did to install it and get it running

Item was delivered on time and packaged correctly

Packaging/appearance

Sleek design that doesnt look like a typical box

Competitiveness

Feature set comparable to much more expensive products

The lgs318 is functionally identical to the lgs308s and seemed to be the logical choice

Works as good as the name brands for cheaper price
