5 out of 5 stars Local Switch Meets my Needs   November 25, 2008
Jerry L. Snively (Avon, IN USA)
This 5 port Netgear switch was the easiest installation I have ever had. Basically, plug in the cable from the broadband modem/router and you have 4 ports for expanding the network. I have 3 computers and a network printer running off of this switch.

The switch operates as specified and has solved the problem of too many devices and not enough ports.


3 out of 5 stars Fastest Gig Switch But..   October 13, 2008
tipstir (Connecticut, USA)
I had purchased 4 Gig cards from Amazon no problems but I had to get Gig switches to work with them on my 100mbps wired and wireless network. Now that Gig is in place these switches work quick transfer speeds are over 30mb when a use a free home user version of a software called teracopy. Now the only beef I have with Netgear is the switch tends to drop out of Gig to 100mbps when the switch gets hot. I don't know why one would do this and not the other. I am having the same issue again and this one is a replacement for the prior one. Both port 3 fails to stay at Gig. No it's not the Gig card if you connect that directly it works for weeks.

All my 100mbps wired are Netgear 2x FS105, 2x FS108, 1x FS608 and 2x GS605. Memory buffer is larger in the GS605 128KB packet buffer.

GS605 is the quickest but you might have problem with it when it gets very hot when used for downloading/uploading other heavy duty task, then you have to unplug it to reset it back to the a stable state.

I might just order a USB FAN and let it cool now the switch. Just to let you all know you can mount them on the wall if you do it this way shown in the image. I use wire and to wood screws.

Joe Church (Tampa, FL)
This is a great switch for a home network. Its fast, easy to connect, has a cool design and works well. I saw my network file copy speeds go up from less than 20MBps to over 40MBps sustained. This is a greats wtich and I recommend this to anyone with a small home network.

We just upgraded the wiring to Cat6 in my office. I purchased 2 GS605s and one GS608 for some end point distribution. Everything went ok on the GS608 - except for a combination printer/fax/copier we have. The people we lease from said that that happens sometimes with their copiers and gave us a Linksys gigabit switch to use - just for the printer. Worked fine. Then when I tried to bring up the other half of the office using one of the GS605 units I kept getting wired problems... printer\copier\scanner (same model as before) connected at 10mbs on the scanner but would not connect for the printer. One user I could not connect at gigabit speeds so I replaced the cable ends - 2 times. Well the lease company came in and again, gave us a Linksys gigabit switch and I tried plugging that in instead of the Netgear unit... everything came up- printer\copier\fax\scanner, the user I replaced end on was at gigabit speeds and the unit is running fine - with very little heat coming off of it unlike the Netgear that was almost hot while it was installed...
In the past I usually used Linksys and I guess I will continue to use Linksys...
