Outstanding Value
I bought one of these switches shortly after they first became available. Even though I paid the full retail price, it was money well spent. This switch performs flawlessly under any workload. I am using this switch in an office environment with five PC's attached, plus an occaisonal laptop, with an 8 port minihub connected to the uplink port. The minihub handles traffic going to the external print servers and the DSS-8+ switch carries data traffic. Using a mix of NIC's and Microsoft opera...

Died after two years. Worked great for two years though.
I picked up this switch about two years ago. The internal fan stopped moving after about six months but a few blasts with an air can fixed that. It does have serious overheating issues. So after two years of being on 24/7 it finally died on me. All the LEDs were on steady and it wasn't passing any traffic.It performed well for the two years it was in service. It's a great switch to have laying around as a spare, but definitely not for mission critical or long term use.

Loud!
I purchased this switch two years ago. It works perfectly except for the noise. The fan is amazingly loud. I am currently looking for a switch to replace it just because of the noise. I see from some of the other reviews that this model has been replaced with one that doesn't have a fan. Make sure you get that one!

Totally Easy
DSS-8 is plug it in and walk away. Very simple. It also has a unique admin interface that you can access. You can set port forwarding, DMZ, Internal Static ip's, etc. Very Very Nice. The whole D Link line is teriffic. I am a sys admin and residential computer tech and use D Link Exclusively.

Owned for past 6 Months - Still Working - No Problems
I bought his about 6 months ago, and it sure wasn't [the price] it is now... But I made sure then that i got one without a fan. It is much quieter, and with no moving parts i am sure it wont go bad ever. The only thing that will make me replace this is when the standard is 1000MB/s instaed of the 100MB now. But that wont be much longer. Highly Recommended

No Tech Support, Very Frustrating
I bought two of these DSS8+ 10/100 switches to replace two 3com 10M hubs figuring I would just unplug the 3com hubs and replace with the DLink switches and it would work great. BIG MISTAKE. Once I switched to DSS8+, all the computers would no longer browse the network. AND DLINK WOULD NOT HELP ME. I phoned tech support and left my name and number. They kept me on hold over 30 minutes. They would not call me back. I wrote three emails spread out over two weeks to DLink. They would not answer me. ...

Very well crafted and reliable
I've been using one of these D-Link switches for almost a year with high performance, and absolutely zero trouble. Like one other reviewer, I paid much more, and would do it again. Slim profile and good mount points mean you can put it almost anywhere. Great for the small or home office users who want true 100 megabit performance, without headaches.

Competant Switch
What can be said about a network switch? It works or it doesn't, really. I have no complaints about this switch, it works well. I've had good luck with all D-Link hardware, really. One interesting feature is that it has an indicator to show if a network device is connected at 10Mbps or 100Mbps. I didn't know that one of my older computers had a 10M card in it until I got this switch!
