Great Switch that supports fast speeds
This works great! Very easy to setup and instantly improved the speed of our internet. I had a 1G switch, but have eero 2.5G access points. This allowed me to get the full speed I was paying for.

No complaints
Solid design. Have been using 5 of the 8 ports at 2.5GB with no trouble. Getting the data speeds I expect. And does not even feel warm to the touch, so heat doesn’t seem to be an issue.

You can see the speed difference.
Great speed increase over gigabit ethernet. Well worth the investment if you’re working with large files on a NAS or similar high transfer workload.

Don’t waste money on others!!
Purchase and returned two cheaper switches due to issues with Killer E3100G 2.5G NIC cards. Purchase the MS308 and all computers came straight on-line with no issues, really appreciate the capability for the switch automatically identifies the data rate and automatically switches down. I have two are 1000 and one at 100 which have had zero issues with this switch. Setup is basic plug-play, small in size, have had zero heat issues and it’s on 24/7. From know on when I need a new switch NETGEAR is the only one to purhcase

Un petit achat suite à l’Achat d’un nouveau routeur avec 4 sorties de 2.5G. J’ai pu diviser une sortie de mon routeur pour avoir un total de 2.5 qui peut entrer dans le routeur.
