This is an OK price, but if you need more ports you can get a refurb GS116 on eBay for $50-60.

Very nice switch. Very nice price. Green for you.

I don't get it. Is this a managed switch, or an unmanaged switch?

I don't know how it can support those features, if this other product quote is true:
"There is no software to install or settings to configure."

How do you configure a guest VLAN without being a managed switch? I think that the Amazon description is wrong, I don't think that this switch supports all of those features. For the price range that this switch is in, it looks like the standard 8-port dumb unmanaged switch.

Btw, this is not a very hot deal. At one point, you could get TrendNet 8-port GigE switches with a metal case for $22 shipped from Newegg.

I'm very confused by the description - seems to be talking about the "smart" version of the switch whose model number is GS108T - the GS108 is just a standard dumb switch

* 802.1x, ACLs, Rate limiting, DSCP/TOS-based prioritization, IGMP Snooping, SNMP v1, v2
* 802.1x for authentication, with Guest VLAN
* MAC-based port security

those three bullet points point toward this being the gs108t, which would be an excellent deal at this price. Can someone confirm which model I'd get for sure?

I bought the GS105. It's a piece of junk. It won't connect over Gigabit to my Intel PRO/1000 GT NIC. From what I've read, it is VERY picky about what it will connect to with GigE. I will never buy another Netgear gigabit networking product.
