GS108Who's on the tag?
While not flashy, a nifty way to speed up wired home networks is to move to Gigabit Ethernet. This works especially well for someone with a newer (last two years) computer who streams music and video files around their home network. This switch significantly speeds up communications between computers on a home network for streaming video, etc. It does not increase Internet speed. Also, it will only increase wired network speeds, not wireless.

What's in the box?

Netgear GS108 Prosafe 8-port Gigabit Switch, power supply and mounting screws. 

What's to like... or not?
Upside: Solidly built metal case. Price.

Downside: It's all good. This is a great network switch.

What's the damage?
$76.95
