    I'm excited to purchase this switch. The wifi from the modem/router that came from my IPS is terrible and needed to be moved to the basement. I wired the whole house with Cat6 and used the switch as an easy plug and play option. It looks good and worked as expected.

    Completely stopped working over 8 months ago. Says lifetime warranty...if you can get them to respond. I left messages but no return calls.

    They honored their warranty and replaced the unit. In my opinion this router is the best in use and design.. this router is for my house not a office or computer center, so why do so many have the plugs in the front? This sits out where it can be seen and the lights on the front let me know the status of what’s going on. The plugs are nice and neat tucked away in the back where they should be. It works like a charm and hope I can buy another one when ready for new system.

    Needed a new switch as my old ten port was no longer large enough to connect to all the rooms and devices in my house. Office, family room, kids bedrooms (older doing college work), smart TVs, NAS, network printers, etc. This was the right price so I took a chance. Good move on my part as this switch works great. For a home network it is the best I have seen at its price point. Connections on the back help make it look aesthetically pleasing and keeps the wife happy. Ports are close to each other but how often do you change cables? Lights can be a bit bright in the dark.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Cheap, inexpensive, UNRELIABLE switch with port LED failures after a few hours of use.
    Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    The D-Link 24-port GE switch is a cheap, inexpensive 10/100/1000Mb/s switch that serves the purpose. All throughput and Ethernet negotiation tests I performed seem to confirm functionality and connectivity. Having the ports in the back -- a rarity for this port density -- makes it perfect for home theater or home office use. The unit runs quiet (no fan) and cool, and the multi-colored link/traffic LEDs blink rapidly when traffic is being forwarded.

    Note that I called it a *cheap* inexpensive switch. Within 12 hours of operation, the LED for port 1 failed. Link and forwarding work fine, but there's no longer any indication of connectivity nor traffic. Thankfully, with 16 free ports (this replaced an existing 8-port switch), it's not a problem, but may indicate a certain level of quality. I've had quality issues with D-Link in the past, and am getting the impression this switch may not improve my opinion.

    Executive Summary: The switch works as expected, but can't say for how long.

    UPDATE: Now the LEDs on all but two of the ports are dead. Clearly D-Link has some quality control issues.

    3/21/2017 UPDATE: After four months, the switch is now completely dead. After power-up, the LEDs come on and the unit passes traffic for maybe 10 minutes, at which point most LEDs go out and all connectivity is lost.

    D-Link has garnered my first 1-star review. Quite an honor, in a Razzies sort-of way.

    Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2016

    I've been shopping for a switch and this came up in one of my searches. Originally I was looking at a 16 port for $67. I noticed that the 24 port was on sale for $2.00 more ($69). I immediately bought it and two days later it is set it up and running.

    Easy to set up - plug in the power and plug in all the Ethernet cables. The cool part about this machine is that it detects the length of the cable and will properly adjust the power setting specifically to the cable. I have several cables, varying in length and usage. It's performing well and exceeding my expectations. Very pleased and happy with this switch.

    Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2013

    Purchased to replace an older failed 10/100 switch. The no-configuration installation was a breeze... just plug and play and everything worked as advertised. Gigabit devices were automatically recognized, though I haven't done any performance testing of these devices yet, but the switch is reporting they're connected at 1000mb.

    Pros: Modest price, easy install, compact package, clear, easy to read LED indicators.

    CON: Absolutely NO documentation included in package except a quick install guide and warranty statement. No explanation of the "EEE+" switch on the device. Turn it on? Leave it off? Who knows!
    CON: LED indication panel is on one side of the unit, network ports are on the opposite side. When troubleshooting a network issue it's always nice to be able to see LED status at the same time you're connecting/disconnecting cables.
    CON: Network ports are not numbered! Short of counting from the edge, there's no way of identifying what port you just connected/unplugged.

    Summary: Easy install, very reasonable price point and at least adequate performance. I'll edit after I complete some performance testing of the Gigabit capability. If you need a good value in a self-managed switch, this one will do the trick.

    I was quite pleased with this switch. I think most computer nerds have that situation at some point where we have multiple switches/hubs all kind of cobbled together in a daisy chained no-no of a mess. This was my solution to that problem.

    My home network has evolved over the years and I tend to over-wire my rooms but I hate having ports that are not live in my house. With this switch being less than $70, it really was a great solution. It is not managed but, for my purposes, it was all that was needed.

    It has no active cooling so there are no noisy fans and it was very light and easy to mount to the wall in my data closet. For the $, this is really an amazing switch.

    This is the first switch I've used. I mounted it to the wall, plugged it in, and patched in 20+ network cables right away and it just worked. I have not cared enough to do any sort of speed testing with/without it.. its doing its job and didn't require any fussing with. I've used a lot of D-Lin k products and never experienced any problems so hope this works as a long-term solution as well.
