Great value, good feature set and easy setup
Easy to set up. Inexpensive but with good functionality e.g. VLANs. Good web interface. Difficult to fault, especially for the price.

Great managed switch, easy to install and use, with 4 PoE ports and 4 normal ports -recommended
Great managed 1Gbps Ethernet switch, easy to install and use, with 4 PoE ports and 4 normal ports, with UK plug and power supply. Good VLAN support, with a choice of 4 port-based VLANs or 8 VPID-based VLANs. Good construction using metal case with no fan, (so passive cooling) makes it very quiet. Only downsides are: no "user id" - just a password to gain access, so cannot share duties with others unless the single password is shared and somewhat weird choice of initial switch IP for management but at least it's well advertised, with pretty good documentation too (although page 10 of UserGuide says it has a power switch - mine does not). Overall rating -recommended.

Cheap, does the trick - but some limits
It's cheap, the metal case is nice, it does the trick, but there are some annoying limits:- Password limited to 15 characters- No apparent SSH or Telnet interface- Absurdly short web interface timeout and can't change- Can't change management VLAN from 1And these are just some of the most basic limitations. But it's cheap and will do the trick for most home users at a very low price, just a shame the software doesn't allow a bit more.

Very handy and low cost managed switch
This handles 32 VLANs which is usually enough for testing / small scale setups. Important thing for me is that the management interface VLAN can be set - some competitors only support management from VLAN 1 which isn't always convenient.

Issues
In the beginning, it worked okay, but after a while, it started having issues with giving the full speed from the router. I have searched the issue and apparently, I am not the only one having this issue. I even bought a cat6 wire just for this and it is still the same. I have even disabled all settings making it a basic switch and still nothing. I would suggest not buying this one but investing money in a better one !!!

VLAN on a budget, great little router for the price
VLAN on a budget, great little router for the price. Works perfectly allowing my modem on one vlan to pass into pfSense vm on proxmox so fault tolerant.
