    • This thing is great! (and silent)
Size: 16 Port, PoE+ @ 180W
It was very easy to connect all my PoE cameras and set them to a separate private VLAN. Then I added a few other PoE and non-PoE devices and an uplink cable to my existing switch. Everything is running like a charm. I purchased "Very Good" from Amazon Warehouse, and it's great!

    • Great entry level managed switch Great entry level managed switch
Size: 16 Port, PoE+ @ 180W
Review Image by Roland
This is a great entry level managed switch. For the last couple of years, I wanted to setup a VLAN for my IOTs and to isolate my work PC. My router firewall has VLAN capabilities, but I needed a managed switch. Not having much IT experience, I was pretty sure that a headache was coming; Honestly it was not so bad. I did the usual locking myself out of the switch (enough times to nearly wear out a paper clip on the reset button) But I did eventually learn to create a static IP for the access computer and to leave port 1 on the switch open. The netgear app for finding the router worked OK but once I started making changes the switch would get lost again, Creating the static IP for the access PC was much better way to do it. The GUI gives you options on what kind of VLANs you want to setup, which is nice for someone that is new to this. And you also get the choice of turning off the POE for the ports that do not need power. I was honestly about to send it back, because I did not want the headache of figuring it out. Very glad, I stayed with it, I feel a lot better now that my IOTs are isolated and my work PC is on its own network. ... show more

Size: 16 Port, PoE+ @ 180W
Review Image by Amazon Customer
I've had no problems with this switch, and the fact that it's fanless and PoE is nice. The only reason I've given 4 stars is due to the absurdly large power supply it uses, which is thicker than the switch itself and 2/3 as long. This mitigates some of the space-saving advantages of the device itself. ... show more

    • Improves SONOS Speed/Issues
Size: 16 Port, PoE+ @ 180W
I upgraded to this switch to improve my SONOS issues and it 100% fixed them. Make sure to turn on IGMP snooping to better handle SONOS multicast. You can ask ChatGPT how to configure it for SONOS.

Size: 16 Port, PoE+ @ 180W
I’m pleased with this purchase. I like Netgear products for their quality builds. This item replaced an older, less capable POE router. And I like the software interface too. My only concern is how long it may last without fan support, though possibly might not be an issue at all. Recommended.

    • Working so far
Size: 16 Port, PoE+ @ 180W
Using a pretty simple setup: RPi4B router (OpenWRT) with several VLANs and another router working as a dumb access point (also running OpenWRT). Purchased this to replace both an older unmanaged switch and a 2nd PoE unmanaged switch. Configured it in "Simple 802.1Q" mode and it was more or less plug-n-play. Setup both OpenWRT devices in trucked mode and everything is its respective VLAN. Remember to check that the firmware is up-to-date (received mine in 29-Jan-2022 and it was not current). Also note per the manual that the default IP for this thing is 192.168.0.239 so initial setup is easier knowing that. ... show more
