My 10/100 8 port switch is dying on me - can anyone recoomend a
8 port 10/100/1000 switch thats good - This is for a home so my price limit for this is 200.
I been on ebuyer and there was an advert for linksys gigabit swirch with nw card kit for 124 but that has disappeared when i checked again today
Any places for a good quality 8 port gigabit switch for under £200?

Why do you want one?

I bought one before realising the maximum data transfer from my PC was easily handled by my 10/100 switch!

I bought mine in Hong Kong thinking I was saving a fortune in raqlity I nedn't have bothered
