Review: Does what it should and does it well - 8-Port - VERY IMPORTANT: This review is specifically about the 8-Port switch. Many features and considerations regarding this switch DO NOT APPLY to other options, especially the 16 and 24-Port versions. Updated May 28th 2015 due to specification changes.

I said it at the top and I will say it here again: This review applies ONLY to the 8-Port version. The 16-Port and 24-Port versions have substantially different features and specifications and this review cannot accurately inform you on them. With that being said... It was time to move from an integrated wireless router to a separate Wireless Access Point , Router , and Switch. I didn't want to spend a lot of money, so I snagged an SE2800. Then I returned that, did some better research, and I grabbed this. One month later it's been put through the basic paces and I can give some information and things for people to consider. The one and only disappointment I've had with this switch is that I ended up acquiring three of them (for various reasons) and one package did not contain the rubber feet. Sealed package. No feet. Sad me. Otherwise, I am quite very happy with this switch. Automatic MDI/MDIX detection is pretty standard these days and simply means that you can plug in an uplink without having to worry about whether it needs a crossover cable. Quality of Service (QoS) tagging is a very good thing to have if you do anything with in-home video or audio streaming. It helps ensure that time-sensitive data gets to where it's going without waiting for things like that huge file you're copying to the other computer. After all, the wait is only a few fractions of a second, but that's enough to make your video all blocky and icky. The 8-Port version has an external power supply and the ones I received are skinny to the left. This is a great way to keep the transformer away from the plug beneath or above the one used, but iff you have side by side plugs on a power strip, this will end up blocking the leftward plug. It's also nice to note that the 8-Port switch has a very clean face. It is made to be a desktop switch, with wiring and cables in the back and a clean front to give basic connection information. This does create a less-ideal situation if the switch is wall-mounted, as the wall mount holes will only accommodate mounting with the cables up or down. As a person with cats, I have to have the switch well off the ground, and this makes viewing the status lights impossible without standing very close to the switch to see the top surface, or mounting it with the cables up which I personally do not prefer to do. I would have loved to have had sideways mounting options. Ahh well. »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» Why not go cheaper? Now I am a frugal person. I originally got the Linksys SE2800 a a local store but then that was returned in favor of this. But why? Why would I spend nearly an extra 25% (at the time of writing) on this switch? Simple: My network is important to me. My network is also important to my wife. My wife is important to me too. That and the fact that if the network has problems, I get to sleep in the car. This switch does not bump up the price just because of the metal case versus the plastic mushroom-case on the SE2800. There is more to it. »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» FEATURES! But what do they mean? Both switches will deal with Quality of Service (QoS) tagging. That is important if you do anything like streaming video, voice calls, and other time-sensitive things on your network. But this switch has some extra things that make it that head above the other. --- "Non head-of-line blocking architecture" This one is nice. Now, mind you, this will only affect you if you have more than two things connected to the switch, so if you are just using it to pipe data between two computers, you can ignore this feature. But if you are using a lot of ports, or especially if you have a file server or other network device that has a lot of traffic going to it, this feature will give you an improvement in network performance. When two or more pieces of data arrive at the same time that need to go to the same place, the switch can only send one at a time. Head-of-line blocking (HOL Blocking) means that while it makes the second (and third and fourth) arrival locations wait, it also makes the pieces of data BEHIND those initial pieces wait too. By avoiding head-of-line blocking, the switch is able to move other data in front of the pieces that have to wait and send them on their way without impacting network speed. This is like the waiting spot at McDonald's drive through. Somebody ordered $50 worth of stuff, so they can wait there for it to be ready while other people who just wanted to get a drink are able to be handled without having to wait. --- "Full-duplex IEEE 802.3x flow control" (and the rest) Notably, it's the "And the rest" part that is important here. The SE2800 does support 802.3x, however there was no indication that it would deal properly with half-duplex backpressure and especially broadcast rate control. The SE2800 is not an incapable switch. This is just a more-capable switch. In all honesty, in most home-use cases, you'll never encounter a need for this, however if you know you need it, or ever do encounter a case where it is helpful, it will save you a tremendous amount of sadness. It's a fancy way of saying that the switch helps take more intelligent control of the traffic in the event of something unexpected or mixed old and new technology. Overall, in testing, the core of the switch runs cooler and this switch has more switching capacity than the SE2800. »»»»»»»»»»»»»» Built metal tough I mentioned I have cats. Nightmare creatures from beyond the void whom I love dearly, but their destructive prowess cannot be topped by anything short of a bulldozer driven by a maniac elephant. Even their fur is a bane to computers. Remember that SE2800 I returned? Plastic. Yeah... It was not pretty. »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» Summary - Worthwhile for a stable, reliable network «««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««« I love my wife and she loves me, but that won't stop her from getting grumpy if our network has problems. I don't like a grumpy wife, so this switch has been an excellent solution. The additional features it carries over the SE2800 also make it a very worthwhile investment despite its higher cost.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Any idea how this compares to the SE2500, which is more popular? Other than looks.**
A: According to Linksys support: "...they have the same functionalities. Their difference is that the SE3005 is made of metal, while the SE2500 is made of hard plastic."

**Q: Looking at the picture, and at my current switch, I don't see a "uplink" port that would connect to the router.  Why is that?**
A: Most switches these days no longer have a dedicated "uplink" port but instead can use any of it's ports as an uplink port. http://www.linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=139602 According to the article "Newer models of Linksys switches (such as the SE1500, SE2500, and SE2800 models) do not have Uplink ports.  Instead, they have auto-sensing ports that are capable of detecting either straight-through or crossover cables." On my switches I use port 1.

**Q: does the all the ports works or just one at the time?**
A: Any port which has something attached works simultaneously without your having to switch anything...I have this and another Linksys model...I have been pleased.

**Q: Does it support international voltage range? (120v to 240v)**
A: Hi Cent. The electrical rating for this device is at 100-240 VAC. You may check more details here: http://www.linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=141159
