RE: 24 Port RM Gigabit Switches
> Anyone using similar or have any comments on the unbranded stuff ?
I don't know you exact setup, but I would go for branded unmanaged, eg
GS116, unless you need to setup VLANs etc. The netgear have lifetime
warranty, may be useful after a thunder/lightning storm ;)
Plug all the gigabit devices in the new switch, keep the old 10/100 for the
non gigabit devices, eg printers, access point(s), etc

If its terminated correctly, and installed to a reasonable spec it should
negotiate at 1000Mb, however I doubt you will actually see a throughput of
1000Mb on devices, due to other hardware constrains, eg PCI bus, disk
speed,
etc
