Showing my switch ignorance...is there a big functional difference between a
cheaper D-Link and other layer 2 managed switches?

I could probably sell them on upgrading to a $400 D-Link if I credited the
price of their old one towards the new one, dunno that I could justify it to
my personal satisfaction though.

Thanks for the help,

It's "possible" that the switch didn't reset itself.  Although, it should be
able to auto-negotiate.  However, it "is" a Linksys and I'd be reluctant to
buy one for home use....

As for what point I would recommend a managed switch, it's a tough call.
With limited budgets, pros and cons must be addressed.  But you as the
consultant need to be able to back it up and provide details as to why they
need certain features.  I myself, get managed switches anytime I can.  It
saves a lot of heartache in most cases....
