Any recommendations on an economical layer 3 switch? I've been quite happy with the Netgear FS728TP ProSafe switches. These are 24 port 10/100 switches with 4 GigE ports and PoE. They also support 1000-SX GBIC through an optional module. The total PoE budget for all 24 port is 195 watts. We

If you really need layer3 support, I would steer clear of the Netgear. I've had a lot of problems with them, and the support was disappointing. What model did you use? I've been very happy with the FS728TP as I mentioned earlier. I haven't had any problems so far. Granted I haven't had to call
