Review: The switch has been running well for 2 years. Unfortunately it started giving an intermittent issue where the internet stopped working, which the old off & on fix worked . I got on to Netgear support and they shipped me out a new switch. I can't complain about that service, made me glad I spent a bit more.

Review: It's a good little switch for basic VLAN and PoE Operation. (I bought the 8 port POE version) The VLAN configuration has four separate modes of operation, only one of which can be enabled at a time. The most useful of these is "802.1q Advanced " mode. Changing to any other VLAN mode deletes the existing VLAN config and you'd better hope you kept a note of the config, as you will have to do it again. The VLAN config is rather basic to understand. Click the port to toggle between "U" (untagged) "T" (VLAN Tagged)" and none (Port not in the current VLAN). Unusually, a port can be a member of multiple untagged VLANs. This is not "true" standards-based VLAN separation but allows a degree of segregation within the same subnet, for example, If for example you had a Guest WiFi and an Internal WiFi and wanted to isolate the two, but have both share the same router and printer, this feature might be useful if you didn't want to configure VLAN tags on the router of if the router does not support VLANs. Anything else (e.g. server access) is probably best done using users/passwords that are allowed/not allowed to access server resources. If you have multiple switches and want to support multiple VLANs across the network, you will need to use "802.1q Advanced mode", and tag all the VLANs on the ports that are connected to the other switches, doing the same at both ends. This should also inter-operate with any other switch or device supporting the industry standard IEEE 802.1q VLAN tagging.) It does support a mix of tagged and untagged VLANs on a port, for example VLAN 1 untagged (native) and VLANs 2 and 3 tagged. This allowed me to roll out the VLANs and migrate things gradually one at at time, rather than having to turn on VLANs, break the existing network, and have to run round and configure VLAN tags on everything in one go. If deleting a port entirely from the default (or only VLAN) then it will complain every time that the PVID is wrong. You will need to add the port to the new VLAN first, change the PVID in a different page, and then go back and delete the old VLAN. Clunky. Device only has a singe password for config access, it has no concept of usernames or access levels. Also there appeared to be no way to isolate the device's management IP from the VLANs. (E.g. designate which VLAN is the management VLAN.) It is accessible on all VLANs. It would appear that the simplest config is to leave VLAN 1 intact everywhere and then add additional VLANs and tagged ports as needed, starting from the device furthest away, configure the port tags. This is so fiddly that I added a handful of VLANs at the same time, so if I need an extra VLAN, I don't need to configure it all again. Current version of firmware does not allow you to see which MAC addresses are learned on which port, or via which VLANs, so this is a big fail for being able to do any network troubleshooting, or if you need to locate a device on the network. This is a very basic requirement for any network switch. It does not allow a description/note per port either, so no helpful reminder of what's plugged in to which port. The switch comes with the usual CD which goes straight in the bin. Instruction leaflet fails to mention the default IP of the device.(Had to look that one up on the Netgear site) It can be configured via web interface, or by some rather strange windows software which is mostly useful for setting the IP, otherwise it's identical to the web interface. If configuring the IP address on multiple units at the same time, the windows software is useful, otherwise it's not that exciting. I bought three of these for a small network. If you're looking for something more complete or for a bigger installation, i'd go for something else. These do the job I need them to do for a cheap price in a small setup. They keep PoE Wifi APs powered on and allow multiple VLANs. A few months on: Hardware seems fairly robust. Mostly a "set and forget" job. You don't want to be logging in and configuring these much, and I haven't had to change the config so far in my environment, they just work.
