Awesome !
Pros: the best thing i like with this switch is the port mirroring that i use for traffic capture. So far it's been awesome, no reboots.. it does not disconnect me or whatsoever. There are tons of features but havent had much time to experiment on them. It's very easy to install and configure. Hopefully this lasts.
Cons: none so far.
Overall Review: i hope i can take advantage of 1Gbps bandwidth. It's just that my nic is still 10/100.
Switch stopped working
Pros: Love this product. functionalities/features included were awesome esp the port mirroring which was the primary reason I got this.
Cons: This switch did not last - very very unreliable. This switch just stoppped working today. I woke up this morning and saw my internet phone disconnected. Rebooted all my routers/switch/cable modem but it still nothing had worked until i ended up zeroing in to this switch. I plugged my computer directly to it and it said that my network cable was unplugged. Of course my computer worked if connecting directly to my router. ABSOLULTELY UNDEPENDABLE THAT WOULD LAST.
Overall Review: this worked well until now when it broke after owning for just 9 months. I guess it was not as reliable as i thought linksys should generally tout itself of. I had another linksys (WRT54GL) that just would not die. I had it for like 5 yrs or more. Let me see how Linksys would handle this since i'm sitll convered by 1 yr manufacturer's warranty.
Not Recommended
Pros: Easy to install. Nice UI.
Cons: The Video quality is bad. The picture is washed off and blurry. The picture in their ad looked amazing but that was a contrary to what this cam has. This company should be sued for false advertising. IF a burgler comes into your house, I'm pretty sure the cops wont be able to use the video as evidence because their faces are not recognizable esp if the bad thing happens during day time. This cam has very bad resolution if there's a sunlight.
Overall Review: I won't recommend that you buy this overrated product. It's just not worth it. I thought some software updates from trendnet would eventually resolve this issue but i guess it wont. I've been waiting for sometime now. Although i hope they do.
