Product Review Summary: Works great!

This Gig-E switch just works. It was a breeze to plug in and swing my cables over to. The extra speed of gigabit is nice. All my computers at home are gigabit capable so everyone in my family noticed the difference coming from a 100MB previously.

I was worried a little about noise since the switch has a fan that is always on. My switch is in a closet and I can hear it at all. It does make some noise however, not much but I wouldn't want it in my bedroom.

Product Review Summary: Just Works.

I had a couple different switches daisy chained together when half my network stopped working. Turned out one of my switches died. I was looking at a replacement, when I decided to buy one with a fan and more ports.

This looked like it would work and would give me a little room to grow. I was up and running in minutes after it arrived. Has performed without a hiccup since.

I'd like to say it performs above my expectations, but since my expectations were high, lets just say it works like I wanted and needed it to.


Product Review Summary: Worked great for 1 year before SMOKE

I installed this in a network closet about a year back. After about 8 months the fan started rattling badly and making groaning noises.

I woke up this morning and found my network down. Went to the wiring closet and found the DGS-1024D hot to the touch, all lights lit up and a thin veil of smoke coming from it. I unplugged it, let it cool down for about 2 hours and plugged it back in. No lights, nothing. Dead as a doornail.

It worked great when it was working but frankly I'll move to something that won't burn my house down. Thank God I wasn't on one of my business trips this week! Mailing it back to D-Link today along with a complaint to the CPSC.

Product Review Summary: Worked Great at a Great Price

There isn't much to say since in and of itself this is a pretty simplistic device with a simplistic function. It mounted well and is built well. I was glad to get the 24 ports and use one unit as opposed to the three we had. I really thought the price was great compared to other products like it in its range as well.

Product Review Summary: Great product, amazing price!

Quiet and works flawlessly. Plug it in and let it rip, very simple! Highly recommended.
