Re: [WISPA] Switch recommendations
Agreed. Stick with what works for you. If you've been happy with Dell then why change? We've been very happy with our Dell switches. HP switches are also great, but we've settled on Dell.

Assuming you don't need anything really fancy in terms of management features, the Dell PowerConnect 5448 might fit the bill, and it's usually available for under $1000 (possibly way under $1000 if you have a good Dell sales rep). I've just rolled out a few 5424s (same thing only with 24 ports instead of 48), and they work well enough.

Love the HP Procurves and can usually find them pretty cheap on e-bay. Mike Hammett wrote: > I had a Dell PowerConnect 3048 die on me today...

I had a Dell PowerConnect 3048 die on me today... I owned it for probably 6 years and only paid $150 for it. Recommendations for a reasonably priced managed 48 port switch? Doesn't have to be new. Recommendations to stay away from? The more gigabit ports the better, but no more than 2 required. The switch works via console, but doesn't respond to pings anymore, even after resetting to factory defaults. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Switch recommendations
The switch I am looking to replace is at my core, tying my APs together, and to the main router. The one I am looking at/leaning to is the Dell Powerconnect 2708. Its Web manageable, and has some pretty impressive features, including broadcast storm control VLan tagging, and port mirroring. Pretty impressive for $76. http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pwcnt/en/pwcnt_27xx_specs.pdf http://www1.us.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/pwcnt_2708?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd Pete Davis NoDial.net John J.

Re: [WISPA] Switch recommendations
Dell seems to make switches that deliver good performance for the cheap price you pay. Whenever we don't need the capabilities of a Cisco switch, but want something managable that won't fall down we go with Dell. -Matt Pete Davis wrote: I was wondering what switch has the largest mac address table.
