intellinet are cheap dumb switches, never had any issue with them, even
have a couple out in the field for years because they have been tossed in
in emergencies and never presented a problem to justify return trips to
those sites, they make good surge protectors

I've had good results with an eight port ASUS, not sure what chipset is in
it. Seems a bit higher quality than the really cheap Taiwanese models.

It's what I call a self-correcting problem. Most things are 
self-correcting, including climate change. You just have to adjust your 
time frame.

One type we would see some packet loss and the other, our router 
reported CRC errors.  Remove switch and problem gone, but so are the 
other devices.

Traffic is below 200Mbps.

Zyxel switches. We use the 8 port ones and they are solid. Used to to
trendnet, but would need a reset once a year or so. Sucks when they are
behind a desk or a wall you cant get to.

I wouldn't recommend the 5 or 8 port for serious WISP core use, but
they are decent edge devices.

For 5 and 8 port switches I've always gotten the cheapest on Newegg.
Rosewill is the brand I last bought.  They work extremely well for their
price and work "good enough" for most cases.  At a tower I'd suggest an
RB750 for the additional capability.
