My 16 port linksys has never had a problem, for whatever that is worth. The good thing about linksys switches are they use low power, do not have noisy fans, and offer fairly decent throughput though you are never going to mistake the packet pushing abilities of a SOHO linksys verses, say, a Cisco 3750. But at a couple thousand dollars less expensive they are a bit easier on the wallet.

I have seen some great threads about networking equipment here so I thought I
would pose this question. Does anyone have any suggestions for a switch for a
home network. I am looking for reliable, fast, and wallet friendly. I was
looking at the linksys sd205
(http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp? grid=34&scid=31&prid=546), any
opinions? I have heard others mention QOS, but what advantage would that give
me on a small home network?
Thanks,
