I just bought at a local shop, paid $15 more. Product is quiet. Setup was simple without one problem. Was actually surprised that networking the printer thru this switch was flawless. Just make sure you unplug router and modem first. When repluging make sure you plug in as the flow of the signal.
this switch works great. cant complain about anything so far. haven't experienced the loud fan noise that other reviews complained about, perhaps because i have mine installed in a fairly cool place.
Bought two. Works great. If locating two switches between a device with RJ-45 surge protection, you need to make sure surge protection is rated for gigabit, otherwise switches will not connect. I also purchased an APC Protectnet PNET1GB since APC BR1500LCD was only rated for 10/100 (not gigabit).
Several of my computers were also Giga-bit. So when I purchased a NAS with Giga-bit it was time for new routers.The most difficult process was finding a inexpensive Giga-bit switch which was listed as compatible with both my NAS and my Sonos music players. I've been burned before using non-approved devices. These work just great and no compatibility issues.
Much improved over the old ver 1 and ver 2. Biggest enhancement was the fan free design in the ver 3 box. My old ver 2 box is dead. Hopefully, the new version will last longer.
