5.0 out of 5 stars Reliable Basic Switch
I have deployed several of these switches in a large environment. This series of switch has proven reliable everywhere we have deployed them. For a small, unmanaged switch it seems to be the best choice available. Crossover detect is becoming a more common feature, and is a real time saver. I have also seen this switch overcome cabling deficiencies where other...

1.0 out of 5 stars Nice switch, bad longevity
I had two of these fail in the last week. Both are about a year old. The first one has a couple of ports that stopped working, and the second completely died overnight. They're plugged into UPS's, so power surges didn't cause the problem. I'm really dissapointed!

I have also seen this switch overcome cabling deficiencies where other "mini-switchs" have failed.

Does exactly what it's supposed to do. A nice, compact little 10/100 switch with eight ports. Works great.

Flawless operation. Plug and play set up. Maybe someday their gigabit switches will work as well.

Cisco Linksys SD208 8-port 10/100 Switch. Connected my PS3, Xbox360, directtv, TV to computer,TV, granddaughter PC, and my extender for my bedroom TV. NO MORE WIRELESS slow connections. Connected everything itself. Next will be my refrigerator.

Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does what it's supposed to do easily, December 21, 2008
This review is from: Cisco SD208 8-port 10/100 Switch (Personal Computers)
Simply put - this switch worked perfectly - just plug the ethernet cables in, power up and it works. Couldn't be easier.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing, July 18, 2004

This review is from: Cisco SD208 8-port 10/100 Switch (Personal Computers)
After years of using a 10/100 hub I decided to "upgrade" to a switch. Expecting a good product from Linksys, especially since they were acquired by Cisco, I purchased the SD208 8-port 10/100 switch. I put it on my network and the problems began. Any time I would attempt to transfer large volumes (1GB+) of data between two of my PC's the switch would freeze up on me and I'd have to unplug it and plug it back in to regain network connectivity.

I've put old reliable hub back in place and I'm returning the Linksys back to Amazon. I think I'll give D-Link a try.
