On the topic of switches...
Does anyone have experience (good or bad) with the CNet
CNSH-1601 or CNSH-2401? Those are unmanaged 19" switches
(10/100) with 16 and 24 ports, respectively, and a
100BaseFX (fibre) uplink port. And they're suspiciously
cheap over here [1].
We might get one of those to upgrade part of our students
dorm network from 10 to 100 Mbit/s. A 100BaseFX port is
required for our uplink. The price is very tempting, but
if the beast hangs every other day, this is no good,
obviously...
Regards
Oliver
[1] About 500 and 900 $US, respectively.
