blown power supply caps

white Reviewed By: linux-works on 1/4/2008
Rating + 1
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: I've debugged and found the problem with the 'flashing leds' issue. when I opened mine I found 2 'bulged' capacitors near the power supply regulator. clear indication of what the problem is.

mine was old and I decided it was quicker to just replace the caps than to send the whole thing back to netgear for them to just replace it with ANOTHER broken-by-design power supply section.

note: its NOT the power wall-wart. that is not the problem - its inside the switch (metal box).
Cons: this switch is guaranteed to fail on you in a year or less. I fixed my own since I can solder and have spare parts; but I would NOT count on this in any mission-critical installation. it WILL fail - they are using 6.3v parts where I believe this is under-spec'd.
Other Thoughts: if you are daring, simply locate the 2 small 1000uF caps (6.3v) and replace with a higher voltage and larger part. that will fix it.

(I didn't buy this unit from newegg, but I do buy MOST of my stuff here and I do recommend this seller; just not this netgear 108 switch)
Manufacturer Response:NETGEAR regrets the problem you experienced with your GS108. The problem which caused some units to exhibit odd blinking lights and a high pitched sound was identified and resolved through a component change in late 2007. Units manufactured in 2008 will not exhibit this problem.

Lifetime Warranty: All NETGEAR ProSafe products are backed by a Lifetime Warranty. Please contact Customer Support (888-NETGEAR : 888-638-4327) and we will gladly assist you in bringing resolution to the problem. We regret any inconvenience caused by the failure and would like to rectify it as quickly as possible.

Thank You,
NETGEAR Support

So far so good?

white Reviewed By: Rey on 11/20/2009
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Compact, fast, priced right.
Cons: None so far.
Other Thoughts: It seems the V2 models weren't very good, which isn't surprising because Netgear has always been hit-or-miss. I refuse to buy their routers anymore, but so far Netgear switches haven't let me down and the V3 seems to have solved a lot of the old issues. Haven't owned this one very long though, purchased for a client's small business about 2 months ago.

Do Not Buy

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great while it works!
Cons: This thing is a pain, very poor reliability I made the mistake of buying two of these, both went bad within in a year. Doing the RMA thing every few months is no fun. Netgear will try to figure out a way to charge you the cost for another unit. I won't buy Netgear again!

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Heavy duty case (feels like quality)
8 Ports
Industrial ground on the rear of unit
Support is very helpful and swapped out unit
Cons: Failed after 2 years
Had to pay for shipping for replacement
Other Thoughts: This switch is used in an industrial facility that hammers the switch 24/7/365. I got over 2 years out of it for relatively little $$$. It does what it needs to do for a switch. Support was super helpful and can be done online.
