D-Link Dms-106xt Switch

Getting 1.2+ GB download on this going direct from the 2.5GB port to this PC. Finally, with Xfinty, I am very happy. Yes, it's expensive. And you need the right modem. But if that's the speed you crave, it works as expected. Wait 6 months, the competition for DOCS 3.1 modems may make things cheaper.

Everything worked great. Bought it for my RV. I have a relative staying in it currently and just ran an Ethernet cable out to the switch. Was an easy way to get it out there. Anyway I noticed my internet kept going out and decided after making my own Ethernet cable connectors that maybe I was the issue. But alas, after hours wasted I realized the switch just won’t receive any data. I’m not an expert on the working of the internet but just running the Ethernet straight to a device works fine. Not sure if these are under warranty as I can’t find that information or the company contact information. So decided to write a review.

I originally purchased this to take advantage of my router/modem's 2.5GB port. My current switch (1GB Netgear) handled the duties admirably for a few years. It was consistent pulling 900's-1200's to all the device connected to it. When I added the new router/modem and the this D-Link device I was unable to get more the 350-500. I tried the turbo mode, but nothing helped I thought maybe it was the new router/modem, but when I put my old Netgear back on, speeds went back to 900-1200. Not sure if I had a defective unit or a compatibility issue. I will say that the unit I had received was previously used.

A very expensive unmanaged switch that only appeals to those looking for an RGB setup. The lighting is just a white LED behind a plastic color sheet (fake rgb), considering how cheap rgb LEDs are, it's surprising why D-Link didn't just add the real thing, the high price of the switch certainly justifies adding real lighting. The overall design is nice, with cables in the back, and status lights up front, and it's absolutely silent. I couldn't find any type of built-in web page for configuration by scanning the entire built-in network range, so it seems to be a plug-and-forget device. The $30 switch the D-link replaces had a basic config page, so this was also a bit surprising for the lack of one. Rating 3 out of 5 stars, due to price, using fake RGB and no customization page for basic configuration

After upgrading from 1Gbps to 2Gbps ATT Fiber Optic, I had a great service tech who provided comprehensive guidance for all of my hardware and wiring. This was in Los Angeles and his name is Andrew. Super great person. Since I had gigabit switches which he noticed upon walking my house to verify Wi-Fi coverage; he spent time with me to clarify the need to upgrade to Multi-Gig switches and Unmanaged. He went on to explain why and keeping it simple to understand. He knew that I didn't need to want any complex setup. In fact, he was there to install a 5Gbps upgrade but I sensed that was way more than I needed and wanted to spend monthly. He made the adjustments to my install and provided great service top to bottom. This switch is plug-n-play and works perfectly.
