Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Metal body is durable. Packaged very well and doesn't overheat or get to hot.



Cons

Product is defective right out of box. Device cannot be pinged ~4 hours after a hard reset - repeatable. Troubleshooting with isp, calling router manufacturer and electrician.

Dirty and deceitful. Looks to be repacked. No fallback is terrible design.

The large print on the rebate form instructions say, send only one rebate from when submitting claims for multiple products on this promotion. Netgear warranty is not worth the gamble to purchase and it is on ly 365 days.

The company outsources all its calls to india and they will trick youvinto registering it. No snmp support for a purported managed switch.

Quality


They work really good and are a well made bulletproof construction.


Great management ui, easy to configure vlans, port enable/disabling, qos (not that i use it, lol), etc.


The software won't work until you configure the switch with the webpage interface.


Just plug the modem into the router and the router out to the switch or it wont recognize it on computer or gaming systems.

Price


Worth the extra ten bucks over the unmanaged.


I paid a few dollars more and got the metal one with lifetime warranty.


If you need a reliable and affordable switch to expand your home or small office network, this is a great choice!

Shipping


It's only good for the vermware version it's shipped with.

Packaging/appearance


I opened this box and set it up in less than 5 minutes.

Competitiveness


Hey this switch worked great with fios.

    Out of the box hooked it up and all systems were back at work as before


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I had a friend ask me if he should buy a gs305


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Which the the same thing only cheaper


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    At first i couldnt answer him because all my internet searching of gs105 vs gs305 returned nonsensical information


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Then i noticed that the gs305 does not have the separate leds for 1000 mbps vs 100 mbps and 10mbps


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    In the past i have found those indicators to be very useful so im sticking with my gs105 recommendation


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Probably a bit overkill to order the 8port gs108ev3 instead of the 5port but the price difference wasnt significant and i like having spare ports if needed later on


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But its no big deal usually youre just setting everything how you want it and rarely if ever going back to mess with it
