What Netgear USED to be....
This switch is solid. In 3 months, I've had no problems with this Trendnet switch. Compare to my netgear crashes, gets into reboot loops, etc even after power brick and switch replacement. The Trendnet switch runs cooler than the netgear counterpart. The Trendnet, like the NetGear, has a metal case for better EMI control. The netgear case is just slightly thicker, which should provide better in-case ventilation. The Trendnet switch has ports/power on the back, and activity/connection LEDs on the front. Because of this, it makes for a much more tidy desk, and easier to see link lights. We'll see how this is doing when it's a year, or 18 months old, but so far, it's power-on durability exceeds the competition. NOTE: This is an unmanaged switch. 10/100/1000 line speed, auto-crossover. There is no monitoring port, no web management, no SNMP, no IP sharing, and no routing. This is a low cost, and well designed device. I highly recommend it.
