  • Great for its intended use


    By A2QEZU2SHYBHM5 on 2007-02-02
    This is an unmanaged switch, which means that you can not configure Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANS) or Quality of Service (QoS) - though QoS is supported through the implementation of 802.1p, but all the attached devices must support 802.1p in order to use it. Since there is no configuration, all you have to do is plug it into power and plug your devices into it. It really is that simple for any unmanaged switch. It will automatically allow all your devices to talk to each other at the physical layer. Of course, your applications must be configured right to talk to each other, but these unmanaged devices make building the infrastructure a snap.

    In answer to a previously posted review, I tested this device in the following way:

    -Port 1 connected to my desktop computer with a Gigabit network interface card (NIC)
    -Port 2 connected to a 10/100 switch which was connected to a gigabit ethernet storage device
    -Port 3 connected to a second DGS-2208 switch which was connectedto the exact same model gigabit ethernet storage device
    -Port 4 connected to a laptop with a 10/100 NIC

    The point of this setup was to use the identical computer communicating with identical devices through a 10/100 connection and through a gigabit (1000) connection. I transferred a 10 GB file to the ethernet storage device through the gigabit connection first and then I transferred the exact same file through the 10/100 connection. The GB connection was about five times faster.

    Now, this proves that the switch does not automatically throttle back to the slowest "connected" device. However, it does not indicate whether the gigabit connections will slow to the speed of 10/100 connections if those slower connections are actually active.

    To test this, I transferred the same file from the laptop to the slower connected ethernet storage device while also transferring the file from the desktop to the faster connected ethernet stoarage device. The results? The gigabit connected devices still transferred the data at rates faster than possible on a 10/100 connection. This proves that the gigabit speeds are still achieved even when a 10/100 connection is active.

    In the end, due to memory and processor limitations, this device cannot even compare to enterprise-class gigabit switches from Cisco and other providers; however, it is the best performing gigabit switch I've ever seen for under $75.

  • DO NOT GET THIS IF YOU ARE RUNNING MIXED MODE


    By A40PZLRVWHC9M on 2006-08-31
    HERE IS SOME USEFULL INFO I FOUND
    first D-Link makes some great stuff but the D-Link DGS-2208 is not one of them

    first tech support is useless they know nothing untill you get a 4-5 level of support (45 min.) the way to get info out of them is to call the (LOCAL) sales desk punch in the keys for presales question

    and from that sales desk call "IT WILL NOT WORK WELL IN MIXED MODES" from this info i sent mine back to for a full refund

    here are 2 reviews i found

    Pros: Fanless. Seems sturdy enough.
    Cons: Won't work well for a mixed network.

    I bought this swtich hoping to use it with my gigabit connected computers along with my 100mbit connected computers. I checked ahead of time, making sure the description for the product said it could work in a mixed speed network. What they didnt mention, is that if used in a mixed speed network (100mbit and 1000mbit connections to it at the same time) it will run at the slowest connected speed. I found out by noticing it wasnt any faster than my previous 100mbit network. I emailed their tech support asking and they respondeded with
    It will run at the slowest speed connected

    So this means that if your router, computer, AP, or ANY ethernet device that runs at 100mbit is attached to it, it will make all 8 of its ports run at 100mbit, regarldess if all the other ports have 1000mbit connected devices.


    here is another bad one i found

    Pros: Jumbo frames, cheap
    Cons: Doesnt work worth beans in a mixed speed environment. If you have 2 computers with 100mbit adapters and 2 with 1000mbit adapters, the switch will run ALL ports at 100mbit, effectively making the gigab... More ยป
    it adapters run at 100mbit. Have a 10/100 router or 100mbit adapter in ANY of the computers thats going to be connected to this switch and your wasting your time if you think you can hookup your gigabit adapters and expect gigabit speeds.

    Other Thoughts: I wish someone else had mentioned its problem in a review before I bought it. I had checked their product sheet and read through reviews about this switch with no mention that it shunts all ports to the slowest connected speed. There isnt any support on Dlinks website for this product nor knowledgebase. I found out that it shunts the ports to the slowest speed by emailing them and getting a single line response of "It is limited to the slowest connection." with a "internet email confidentiality statement" indicating that the information in the email is intended only for my personal use and is private/confidential. Brilliant




  • Highly recommended; better than Netgear!


    By A30L1TZXGV9DBH on 2007-09-28
    This is one of the few present-day unmanaged gigE switches which appears to do speed and duplex negotiation properly. It negotiates speed/duplex successfully with the following vendor's PHYs: Broadcom, Intel, Marvell Yukon/Yukon II, and nVidia (nForce 4). Verified using both Windows XP drivers and FreeBSD drivers.

    If you don't know what a PHY is, just consider it a NIC, otherwise use Wikipedia to discern the difference.

    Pros:

    * Significantly faster than Netgear and Hawking Technologies' unmanaged gigE switches
    * ARP caching is reliable (no "leftover" MACs; no need to power-cycle switch if changing devices on a specific port)
    * Dual-coloured LEDs to depict of speed and network I/O
    * No dedicated uplink port; you can use any of the 8 ports for uplink
    * Incredibly lightweight
    * Wide (physically), allowing for better spacing of RJ45 jacks
    * Remains cool (slightly warm near front of unit)
    * Very low-power AC adapter
    * AC adapter is space-friendly (not a "wall wart")

    Cons:

    * Network I/O LEDs don't update/flash as often as I'd hoped (other vendor's products do the same thing these days, though)
    * Slow initialisation when powered on. Switch appears to go through a sequence of tests, one per port, then resets all ports. Entire boot time is about 6-7 full seconds, which is fairly long for an unmanaged switch.

    Would I recommend this product? Definitely -- especially over Netgear unmanaged switches, which suffer from numerous compatibility problems with mixed-vendor PHYs, and also emit quite a bit of heat (especially the small/square blue models).

    I'll take an extra moment to point out that the speed gain from this switch is quite significant compared to my (personal favourite) Hawking Technologies switches, and Netgear switches. I'm not sure why this is, but possibly layer 2/ARP routing inside of this switch is done much more efficiently than competitors' products.

    I didn't give it five (5) stars because I haven't been able to test it with all vendor PHYs; 3Com, Attansic, Linksys, Netgear, Realtek, and SMC are others which I haven't tested.

    If you're wanting something that fits your desk, and you don't need the extra 3 ports, consider getting the 5-port model instead.

  • To help clear things up...


    By A34IY2GPJPG25J on 2007-10-04
    Hi guys/girls,

    I noticed that the first review for this item quoted what I had written in a review on Newegg so I thought I'd clear up some discrepancies between what users have been writing in recent reviews compared to earlier ones.

    From what I understand of this product, hardware version 2 has no problems in a mixed network. However, from my testing when I bought the DGS-2208 and from D-Link's E-mail support, hardware version 1 shunts all ports to the lowest active connection.

    My initial testing had been done between two computers, one with a raid0 array on a gaming machine and the other a file server with raid1. Both machines had their software firewalls removed and the connections between the two computers and the DGS-2208 used Category 6 cables. Both machines have EXPI9300PT Intel Nics. Transfer speeds were between 600Mbit/s - 700Mbit/s, per iperf.

    Adding a connection to a dns caching machine that had a rl8139 chipset nic or to a motorola router, (both 100Mbit connections) the same test before mentioned was ran again , except that the speeds never went above 100Mbit/s. This was not between the gigabit connections and the 100Mbit connections, it was still between the two computers with Intel Gbit nics. After additional tests were ran with the same results I contacted D-Link's E-mail support.

    At the time, there was not a listing on D-Link's website for this product and it did not have the product manual available like they do now. I emailed D-Link with my iperf results and observations, asking this question:

    "My question is, Is this switch able to operate at 100mbit and 1000mbit at the same time, or is it limited to the slowest connection present?"

    A representative responded with:

    Your Case ID is DLK397875395.
    Date of Reply: 8/24/2006
    Products: DGS-2208

    It is limited to the slowest connection.

    Sincerely,
    Jerry Hernandez
    D-Link Technical Support

    I ended up replacing all 100Mbit Nics in the remaining computers with rl8169 chipset Nics (Gbit) and replacing the previously used router with one that had a Gbit switch built in (RVS4000). This fixed my issues I was having with the DGS-2208 because there was no longer any connections to it that ran at 100Mbit.

    All that being said, if yours works fine in a mixed environment, then I'm happy you didn't have the troubles I did. For the person that condescended the first reviewer stating that he doesnt understand how a switch works, the guy was just trying to inform other users so that they could avoid similar problems.

  • Switch me like you mean it!


    By A2X61KKXXR6WNP on 2007-12-19
    This is the best unmanaged switch I've been able to find. Unmanaged means that the unit does not have an ethernet interface that can be used to prioritize traffic flow. Unmanaged switches are by far the most common type, and for most residential applications will do the job for significantly less money.

    The switch operates at full speed, and I haven't had any signs of 100 Mbp/s devices causing it to slow down other devices. I checked this, and it operates each device plugged into it at full speed regardless of the speed of the other devices. Some people say it does slow down, so perhaps there are multiple revisions out there. The two that I have were purchased in August 2007 and do not have a problem with this.

    The ports are well spaced, and it is easy to plug in and remove cables, even ones with plastic overmolded snagless heads. I've had other switches in the past that had the ports so close together that I started leaving every other port open just to get some space. That is not the case with this one.

    I have two of them, with one up in my office and the other in the basement wall-mounted beside the wiring closet. The basement unit is the primary backbone for my home network, so it gets a heavy workout. The ability to wall mount them is a nice option.

    One thing about these switches is that the primary processor in the unit does not have a heat sink on it. I opened both of mine and put a heat sink on them that I had lying around. They don't need a big one, as the heat generated isn't extreme, but you can easily add one as a bit of insurance.

    I put two of these in full service in my home and have used them continuously now for over a year, and they are still going strong. When I need another one, this is the one I'll get.

    Fast, fairly inexpensive, and well made. Recommended.

  • Great Gigabit Switch
    By AELTCA95NQK2H on 2007-06-10
    This is one of most econonomical Gigabit Switches on the market today. They are quiet, don't overheat, and work very well. I use with systems at gigabit where wired for it, 10mps for printers and 100mps for CAT5 wired systems. This is your typical mixed environment. If your having troubles connecting at Gigabit speeds, it's your fault, not the switches. Your system needs to be setup for Gigabit, you need to cabled CAT6 or at least CAT5E, and your patch panel to your switch needs to support CAT6 as well.

    I bought a second for a spare, it hasn't been out of it's box yet.

    My only regret? I wish I could buy this in a 16-port version for under $100.00.

  • Works GREAT in mixed mode.
    By A3B95OPJR6H1UT on 2007-05-24
    I had to post a review because one of the reviews I read here freaked me out. I found it hard to believe a gigabit switch would fall back to the slowest speed on all ports and wouldn't auto negotiate per port. I bought one anyway to see what happens...

    Bottom line: It's a gigabit switch that works as you'd expect. I have several computers with gigabit nics and several non-gigabit devices (router, print server, older computer) all connected at the same time.

    The gigabit enabled computers connect and transfer at gigabit speed. The 10/100 devices connect and transfer at 100 Mbps. No problems at all.

    I believe the reviewers who had problems didn't have their gigabit nics set to 1000 or don't own gigabit nics or have wiring problems (gigabit uses all 4 pairs and 10/100 uses only 2 of the 4 pairs on a cable). I even tried to create a problem by setting my gigabit nics to AUTO and they still negotiated 1000 Mbps. The only way I can ding this switch is its light weight. I wish it were heavier as it tends to want to lift (lean back) when you have a bunch of network cables hanging out of it. Wall mounting is an option, however.

  • Good, inexpensive choice...
    By A3Q4TYJVAM4IRM on 2008-05-17
    I'm a technology junkie, and run networks professionally, so I've had home LANs for years. After several failed desktop gig switches, and reading dozens of user reviews, I picked this model as a combination of reliability and low-price.

    * I dropped this into place where I had a 100Mb NETGEAR FS608 8-Port Fast Ethernet Switch. My throughput on a large file copy went from about 5.7MB/s to 22MB/s, using the same computers, cables, and software, almost a 4x speedup. I suspect my test throughput is now limited by other factors rather than the switch.

    * The case is a little large, but is wall mountable. My biggest complaint is that it's oriented as a desktop switch (lights on one side, cables on the other), which is awkward when you mount it on the wall (either the lights are hidden or you can't get to the cables easily).

    * This is a "green" product. It's max power draw is 6W, vs the 17.5W for a NETGEAR GS108 ProSafe 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Desktop Switch. If both products ran at max power usage all year long, this Dlink would use 52.56KWh a year, and the Netgear GS108 would use 153.3kWh a year. The difference would cost me about $[...] a year at the rate I pay here in Maryland. So the "green" product effectively gives you the equivalent of a rebate, every year!

    I realize that the switches wouldn't run full-tilt all-year long, but the idea holds. We're finally starting to realize all the little things we do add up, environmentally and in cost. Buying hardware designed with that idea in mind helps!

    * It handles both 100Mb and 1000Mb hosts simultaneously without a problem (contrary to some comments otherwise). Mine is a H/W ver. C1

    Other thoughts: In the race to lower prices on consumer-grade gig-e switches, vendors seem to have cut corners. Almost every model of gig switch under $100 is plagued by quality problems and short lifespans (regardless of what the warranty says) according to many reviews.

    For example, the NETGEAR GS108 ProSafe 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Desktop Switch is a GREAT design derived from the vendor's commercial lineup. Its case is sturdy heat-conductive metal, and easy to wall-mount. But mine died after 1.5 years of moderate use. I did better than many other folks who say their's only lasted 1 year. Annoying, especially considering its premium pricing.

    This DLink SEEMS to be the exception based on reviews: cheaper, good performance, with no user complaints about it dying. So far, so good!

  • D-Link DGS-2208 8-Port 10/100/1000 Desktop Switch
    By AV4Z6L9CWN5H0 on 2006-11-09
    Switch was simple to install to my existing network, just plug and go. I used this switch to separate some CPUs off of the 100mb network and put them on the gig highway. Worked just as planned and was seamless. I actually added two of these and saved big jack over a 16 port gig switch. Network speed and response time increased even for those CPUs w/out a gig nic. I like the idea of having a switch with capacity that far exceeds network traffic. Highly recommend.

  • Works Great, look for the new 5V version
    By A36VXLB8BM9NNE on 2007-01-26
    Works Great! Clear lights indicators. There are Old 7V DC and new 5V DC version on the market. I would only want the 5V DC version!

  • Excellent upgrade over 100 Mbps switches
    By AJOX0T5I0RD7Z on 2008-02-14
    So I had finally upgraded my Windows XP desktop and my Linux file server so that they both had gigabit network interfaces, but everything was still plugged into a Linksys EZXS88W EtherFast 10/100 8-Port Workgroup Switch, so I wasn't getting any benefit from the faster NICs. I sometimes move rather large files around my home network, so it was time to upgrade. After reading the reviews I decided to try this D-Link DGS-2208 gigabit switch as a replacement.

    To see what kind of improvement I got, I performed a file copy benchmark from and to the server both before and after I swapped in the new switch. The file was a 2.87 GB hard disk image from Virtual PC. Here are the results:

    Copy from server to PC, Linksys 100M switch: 6:08 (62 Mbps)
    Copy from PC to server, Linksys 100M switch: 5:00 (77 Mbps)
    Copy from server to PC, D-Link 1000M switch: 1:16 (302 Mbps)
    Copy from PC to server, D-Link 1000M switch: 1:23 (277 Mbps)

    As you can see, the file copy times were drastically reduced after upgrading to this gigabit switch; my effective network speed increased by about a factor of 4. I was very happy with this result. In case you are wondering why the gigabit transfer rates are nowhere near 1000 Mbps, you have to take into account the other limitations of your hardware such as hard drive speed. You would need extremely fast systems with RAID striping to get anywhere near actual 1000 Mbps performance.

    For the record, there were also two 100 Mbps devices plugged into this switch during this test (a print server and an uplink to my router), so the idea that it falls back to the lowest connected speed is nonsense - that is not how switches work. I just got this switch today so I can't say anything about its long term reliability, but if it continues to perform like this it will definitely be a winner.

    As far as ergonomics, I like the fact that there are indicator lights that show the device speed (yellow is 100 Mbps, green is 1000 Mbps). For my setup, it's also convenient that the lights and ports are on opposite sides of the switch. This switch is a bit larger than my old Linksys, which was no wider than the 8 ports plus power connector, but it's not too bulky. A documentation CD is included, but there's really no need for it. You just plug this in and go; there's absolutely nothing to configure since it is an unmanaged switch.

    I rated this item 4 stars only because its reliability is not yet proven. So far, it has my full recommendation.

  • Excellent with only very minor problem
    By A6DHCCB1X0NVZ on 2008-05-09
    I just received and installed the switch today and have a bunch of 100Mbps switches and hubs attached, so I can't really vouch much for the transfer rates, but I can say that pulling from two computers on two different switches connected to a gigabit file server on this switch, I did notice a considerable increase in speed.

    However, I did notice one very minor problem when testing the ports on this switch. When you try to use a simple loopback adapter to test the ports (I have ethernet running to many rooms in my house), the switch is too smart and does not show a link light. I think this may have something to do with the green features of the switch. It may work with an electronic network test kit, but just not with a keychain loopback adapter. The easy fix was to just use a laptop instead. :-)

    Like I said, very minor, but it confused me for a minute at first. Hopefully this will help other people when considering purchasing or testing this switch. In the meantime, I'm going to buy some more. :-D

  • D-Link DGS-2208
    By AOX51LGDI2XP3 on 2007-01-04
    Great switch - plug and play, works well.
    Nice product and well priced.

  • DGS-2208 - Good solution for inexpensive gigabit
    By AWUOWS53AQ3IY on 2007-04-10
    The D-Link DGS-2208 is a good solution for upgrading to inexpensive to gigabit capability. Requires that NICs be gigabit capable to take advantage of increased bandwidth, otherwise the switched connections will remain at legacy 100 megabit bandwidths.

  • Straightforward and simple
    By A2STNNDQQ7UVTE on 2007-12-18
    The switch is easy to use and setup with good performance. There's not much more to add than that really... it does what I expect it to do and looks decent in the process.

    My main reason for picking this over the other 2 8-port gig switches was the color coded link lights. I have a mixed speed network with some devices running at 10/100 and most running at 1GB, and I find it useful to have some indication that they are running as expected.

    One last thought: I have had no issues with the switch reverting to ALL 10/100 just because 1 device is running at that speed as some other reviewers have suggested. Presumably this was some kind of firmware issue which has been resolved in recently released models... I didn't have to download any new firmware to fix this.

  • Works as intended
    By A383ZIHPXD97W4 on 2008-02-08
    This switch was very easy to install. I just plugged it in to the wall and plugged my cat 5e cables in and it does its job. No hiccups thus far. I have it plugged in to a cable modem and wireless router, computer, and Xbox 360 and have not had any problems with any device. Aesthetically speaking, it is a nice looking piece of hardware for those people who have it sitting on a desk or out in the open. I have mine mounted on the wall in one of my closets. I would recommend this product.

  • Awesome
    By A2DKWA73382QL7 on 2008-02-22
    I had this product up and running in under 5 minutes and the boost in network speed was amazing. Working continuously since then. Recommended without reservation.

  • Cheap, fast, reliable
    By A3OGPCWAPUJQY on 2008-03-29
    My title pretty well sums it up. Cheap, fast, reliable. Not to mention easy to use. I just plugged it into my existing router (which was full) and presto! Room for more devices!

  • Good Fast Cheap What more could you ask for
    By A132731DRU7BO9 on 2008-04-04
    I almost did not buy this switch because of the reviews that said it would default to the slowest speed. It does not. I have it connected to my desktop at 1GB, my Buffalo NAS at GB and my wireless router at 100MB all work great. It was easy to setup, just connect and run.

  • disappointed in the GOLD DEAL
    By A3EMVNSG6QMT4X on 2008-05-27
    Ive look at the reviews, and this switch seems to be good compare with other for the price. I was a little disappointed in the gold deal by amazon. If you search newegg you will find this available cheaper (37.99 shipped AR)and you dont have to hurry to order it within the four hour "SPECIAL".

    Easy to set up and mount to wall. "No" setup... just plugged in power and cables. Nice think that I'm saving a bit of energy using the product.

    Nice attractive unit... not just a beige box. Same price as "non-green/George Bush type" switches.

  • Killed my net connection speeds
    By A2XWSGQ6NXBR37 on 2008-09-27
    I bought and installed this switch when the previous 5-port D-Link gigabit switch I had in place died. (I also kind of needed the extra ports anyway so the death was a little fortuitous.) As soon as I plugged it in, I saw a dramatic reduction in speeds to the Internet. LAN speeds were fine but WAN download speeds went from >10MBit/s to <2MBit/s. Oddly, upload speeds were unaffected.

    Several hours of diagnostics and the only hitch appeared to be the new switch. Thinking I had a bad product, I returned it and got a new one. Same problem. Went out and bought a Linksys switch (model: SD2008), plugged it in, problem solved.

    I've been a dedicated D-Link user for years but I'm thinking of giving that up. The 5-port switch I was replacing was just over a year old and the one before that (also D-Link) had all kinds of connectivity issues. It's an unmanaged switch, it should just work!

    Anyways, I gave it 3 stars because there's a possibility that I got two bad boxes in a row (there are far too many good reviews here) and the LAN speeds were great. If you buy one, make sure you can take it back easily.

  • No problems with mixed mode networks
    By A2UK0BAO6X5INT on 2008-11-22
    Whatever the issues were in the reviews dated in 2006 appear to be completely resolved. I installed this unit in November 2008 and I get full speed between 1Gig ports despite having some 100Meg cards active on a few of the ports. This unit runs cool (just a tiny bit of warmth near the front), and the ports are well-spaced. For an inexpensive 1Gig switch this does the job just fine.

  • It just works
    By A1VTGZK4C5BO7F on 2007-10-13
    This thing just works. No experience needed. However, I can not test if it works to 1Gbps. Hopefully it does.



  • Works perfectly right out of the box
    By A1TQJQ7Z946KQU on 2007-12-06
    Can't get much easier than this....plug it in, hook up your Cat 5 or 6 cables, and off you go! Everything should be this easy.....

  • Great switch, great power supply
    By A1UJFH6I01B1P7 on 2007-12-08
    It's a great little 8-port gigabit switch; just works. More than that - they addressed a pet peeve of mine. This switch replaces a Netgear FS605 4-port 10/100 switch that came with a big 310 gram power supply plug that ran quite warm. The giant Netgear power supply plug dissipates much more power than the switch itself.

    The new D-Link's 55 gram power supply plug runs much cooler, in a much smaller package. Bravo, D-Link!

  • Great little switch

    I picked up this switch because I needed to extend my network to hook in a few more wired devices.

    It works perfectly. I just plugged in the other devices and they see the internet. All the devices can see each other. Pretty simple.

  • Very well for it's job.

    Because I only need it to hook up local Xbox 360s for small LAN parties, it works well for the job it's given. As for it's capabilities in more corporate/office areas, I'm sure it would do well.

  • Plug and Play. Great value for money

    This is my second one. Works great.

    Noticed a 'green' label on the box claiming less power usage on unused line. Sounds like a good thing, but I'm not going to check/worry about it.

    I've been running mixed speed just fine for a year or so on my first one.
    Using 10mb to an old Digital VAX, 100mb to most 'stuff' and GB between my workstations and two servers (Alpha and Itanium).

    Cheers,
    Hein.


  • Works great!

    I've had this for a month. What can I say? It simply works without any problems. A good example of technology fading into the background and becoming invisible--exactly as it should.
