Great switch, as expected with equipment from 3COM. Using this one and another 3COM switch to run my home media server network at Gigabit speed. No issues as of now, just smooth sailing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hot little switch, April 28, 2007

This review is from: 3COM Gigabit Switch 8PORT (Personal Computers)

The 3Com switch runs physically pretty hot, I do not know how much electricity it uses but perhaps quite a bit since it is on 24 hours a day. It has a number of rather large blue lights for each Ethernet line. Unlike many switches, it gives full gigabyte speeds (rather than the more common 100-megabit speed). I don't think there is any way to configure it (no web-browser access, for example), just plug it in and use it. There is no indication if a line is running at gigabit speeds, or is connected to (for example) a slower network adapter and is running at 100-megabits. For some reason, my VPN connection will no longer work when run through this switch.
