Re: Netgear Switches



Thanks Ross,

Chalk one up on the good side.

Not too worried about build quality (as long as it

Have you had any incompatabilites with any other kit?

Regards
Simon

PS
There's one thing you can be sure of, you can always
find one person who has a horror story about anything.
