D-Link DGS-1024D Ethernet Switch (DGS-1024D)

Pros: I use this for my home network. My network has 24 ports available on it due to twelve 4-way wall plates with 2 ports in each. All machines are dual homed. This switch is a great value and streaming 1 Gb/sec (or close to it) from one machine to another is a dream. D-Link makes a solid low-end switch with Jumbo packets support and, for the price, this is a great value.Cons: None, it's been solidDon't expect a fully managed switch. This thing does QoS with intelligent firmware.

This model has been around for a while, and there are different hardware versions: A1, B1... I think the most recent one is D1. The 'Green' features are…

Pros: If any of you have priced out 1Gig switches you know that they are expensive once you get over the 5 to 9 port variety. This one was not with 24 ports I thought it a steal. It has no fans so it is quiet which is another plus.Cons: None so far.I am not sure that it will measure up to the more commerical switches but I am using this this at home and it works great. Just for back ground I have friends over for Lan Gaming and with all the devices that now support Network connection I just needed more ports. I know as time goes on we will have more and more devices that need network connections and This baby fits in nicely for home use.

Pros: Plug and go!Cons: none that I can think of.Basic switch for a small business.
Mine has been running for about a year now with 0 issues.

I've only had this for a week, but so far it has been working great. I am using it to replace a number of 4 and 8 port switches that I had daisy chained together in…

Pros: Its a 24 port 10/100/1000 switch. It does its job and does it without complaint. I've not had any issues connecting anything to it so far. All speeds are what the max the systems interface can do. I have a mix in my setup and they all talk to each other through the switch just fine. Speeds have been good.Cons: None so far.Wish it was somewhat managed, but hey its a good deal anyway!

noticeable differece in network

Plug and play. No complaints. Got it one month ago.

Pros: Rack mountableCons: Can't make me breakfastIf your fan is noisy, remove the fan and carefully peel back the label and squirt a little bit of oil into the bearing. Stick the label back down and enjoy the quieter fan.

Pros: Works great, plug it in and it works! Rack mountable, so I have it mounted right next to my older model of this switch.Cons: The activity lights are set up weird compared to the older model I have, and they are not ordered with the ports, so its harder to tell which cables are or are not active. Not really a big deal, just something I noticed.Im really impressed with the D-Link DGS-1024D, and have never had any issues with the two versions of this model I own. Both work great, run fast, and have never been a issue!

Pros: Fanless design. My old 24 port 10/100 had only one problem -- each of its fans died, one after the other, about 2 years apart. But this one has fewer components of lower power dissipation, and achieves all its cooling passively.Cons: Does not transform into a barbecue.Fanless design.

Pros: Qos - for streaming HD video over my network
Small form factor - easily fits in a home structured wiring enclosure// channelvision makes a great clamp...? or whatever they call it, to mount it in an enclosure
Low Heat - I couldn't detect any heat for that matter. No fan?? Wow.
Perfect for a wiring enclosure with little air flow
Great price for a gigabit 24 port switch
Rack mount optionCons: zero....none..... I usually find myself only reviewing really good products or really poor products. This switch hit a homerun for me.Qos - for streaming HD video over my network

I connected three hdhomeruns, to 5 mediacenters. Utilizing all 6 tuners I streamed/recorded HD OTA TV to my media centers simultaneously for over 8 hours. (The switch was located in a structured wiring panel). What impressed me most was not only did it not miss a beat while streaming all that hdvideo, there was no detectable heat at the switch. They aren't kidding when they say green. Highly recommend for a low cost unmanaged switch.

Pros: Using this on a home network with Ubuntu 10.04 linux. Of course, there's no reason why a network switch should not work with linux, but it never hurts to see positive verification. Open the box, set it up, plug it in - it works.Cons: For some inexplicable reason, the included CD has a Windows .exe file that does nothing but load the manual in Adobe Reader. Oh, it also loads an HTML file that tells you where to get support. It runs under WINE in linux, but don't bother - you can load the manual directly, and you won't be missing anything.Using this on a home network with Ubuntu 10.04 linux.

Not really a con, but just so you know: The manual is on a CD only - no paper manual provided. Pretty typical these days.I've only had this for one day, so let's hope it keeps going . . .

Pros: This device moves terabytes of data daily between dozens of clients. Haven't had to reboot once since I bought it. Highly recommended!Cons: None!This device moves terabytes of data daily between dozens of clients. Haven't had to reboot once since I bought it. Highly recommended! None! SSIA!

works great had for over 2 years no issues what so ever have purchased for small business's as well as home use

Pros: I does just what I expect of a switch. Plug it in and it works. Quiet, I have it sitting right by my desk and doesn't bother me. (I think it doesn't make a sound at all). The indicators make it easy to see what links are connected at 1G and which ones are slower.Cons: I have to agree with one other review I saw that the ordering of the port numbers is a bit unusual, but this is really a nit pick.I does just what I expect of a switch.

Pros: Low power, no fan, worksCons: Other than not being free or made of sunshine, none.Low power, no fan, works Other than not being free or made of sunshine, none. With 12 ports active, this switch uses less power than the Netgear gs608 v2 that it's replacing!

Great product that works as advertised. I am using it in a home network that I have upgraded.

Pros: while the switch worked it was quick, quiet and cool.Cons: Started Killing ports 28 days after install.DEAD 32 days after installwhile the switch worked it was quick, quiet and cool. Started Killing ports 28 days after install.DEAD 32 days after install This switch wont allow computers to get DHCP address any longer and is dropping about 70% of packets.It seemed like a good switch up until it DIED now it sits there and blinks at me.

back to my 2 little 8 port switches until i can get my RMA done.

Pros: This is a great little switch. I did some looking around and this seemed to be the best bang for the buck.Cons: The Link/Act lights aren't over the ports. Ports numbered oddly.This is a great little switch. I did some looking around and this seemed to be the best bang for the buck. The Link/Act lights aren't over the ports. Ports numbered oddly. Still a great switch for the money. Who is really seating around all day looking at the blinking lights anyways?

Pros: Great switch that works. Speeds are fast as expected. Keep up the good work D-link.Cons: noneGreat switch that works. Speeds are fast as expected. Keep up the good work D-link. none Is smaller and more compact than normal rack mountable switch but, at least they give you the longer ears to place it in a rack correctly. This is not a con but, if we have to say something based on first impressions

Pros: Small size, no fan, plug & playCons: none so farSmall size, no fan, plug & play none so far This replaced an old Cisco 10/100 swith in our nework of 12 computers. Also added D-Link gigabit NIC cards to the computers without them. The network is much faster now.

I have purchased several of these 24 port switches and all of them are still running perfectly under heavy load in an industrial aerospace facility. If you don't…

just what we needed for the game club.

Have unit in rack configuration and standalone with supplied little rubber footies. True test of course is years from now when they continue to work flawlessly.

Pros: No fan, stays cool even in my enclosed wiring panel in the basement. Works perfectly right out of the box. Non-active ports are powered down, which helps it stay cool!Cons: None for me!No fan, stays cool even in my enclosed wiring panel in the basement. Works perfectly right out of the box.

This is a simple addition to a network. Completely plug and play. Fast and efficient unit.

Pros: works reliably - low costCons: older version used an internal fan that was noisy... latest version (same model number) has better venting and no fan.works reliably - low cost older version used an internal fan that was noisy... latest version (same model number) has better venting and no fan. I've had one of these in service for several years. I just received another yesterday 7/14/2010. Both are the same model but look slightly different. This new one has NO fan so it has no fan noise. The vent holes in the case are much larger and you can see straight through it. You can see several large heat sinks internally. Presumably this is to allow it to operate without a fan at all... less energy and less noise. Performance on my older one (at least three years old) had dropped somewhat. Presumably this is because the fan quit working quite some time ago and the unit's case was more than a little hot. After a day of heavy use the new one is not warm at all and performance is back to what I'd expect.

Pros: 1.) Full set of 24 gigabit Ports
2.) Rack mount capability
3.) Passive Cooling, no moving parts, so there is virtually no noise
4.) Small size means it can fit anywhere on your desk
5.) Full LED readout of port status'sCons: Not Much to put here except that they numbered the ports:
1 3 5 7
2 4 6 8
Instead of the traditional:
1 2 3 4
13 14 15 16
That and the rack mounts are a little dinky but sustainable

I also like the Green feature where is a port is connected, but inactive it can shutdown that port and dedicate its power where there is activity saving both time and energy

Pros: Dead quiet, rack mountable, low power usage.Cons: Wish the indicator lights were on the ports themselves.Dead quiet, rack mountable, low power usage. Wish the indicator lights were on the ports themselves. Can't beat the price for this many ports, gigabit, jumbo packet support

Pros: Easy plug and play setup. Fast and reliableCons: Wish it wasn't as deep as it was so it would fit a wall mount rackEasy plug and play setup. Fast and reliable Wish it wasn't as deep as it was so it would fit a wall mount rack

Pros: Works exactly as expected without a hiccup.Cons: The fan is noisy. I didn't notice it at first because it was around other noisy equipment. When I was in a quiet room and turned it on, out came the really noisy fan. Yeah, it's a con... but such a tiny detail! Not at all important.

If you don't like the noise then mount it in another room! Love it. It's a great residential/small-office quality gigabit switch.

Pros: Confined to a cubbyhole in a frat house ceiling, this thing chugs away without complaint. Simple, cheap for the number of ports, power efficient and reliable. We looked at spending less for a 10/100 switch with 2 gigabit ports, but we're glad that we went with this one.Cons: Fan noise would be noticeable in a quiet room.

Fan noise would be noticeable in a quiet room. Located anywhere else, you would never know. If you are setting up a small network, make sure that you have a router between the modem and the switch, because the switch can only pass the modem's IP address along to the first device that it contacts.

Pros: 24 ports Gigabit, and Jumbo frame support.Cons: fan is a bit noisy24 ports Gigabit, and Jumbo frame support. fan is a bit noisy Bought this for lan party use and it works great.

Gigabit Ethernet really speeds up transfer of video files within the network.

Installed 3 weeks ago and it works great, easy to install nice compact size. Shipped ahead of schedule too.

Pros: Wanted to consolidate my several switches to just one, boost speed from 100Mbps, and hopefully reduce power consumption. Got all three. The Kill-A-Watt measurement with several active ports showed a mere 6-7W draw! And with no fans, goes nicely with the other gear in my now nearly silent server closet.Cons: NoneWanted to consolidate my several switches to just one, boost speed from 100Mbps, and hopefully reduce power consumption.

Pros: Well the price was good. Free Shipping. Had it for about 3 weeks and it took 6 hours to transfer 10 gb from 1 machine to another.( both xp) The transfer rates werent that good.Cons: Transfer rates were awful. I think it was defective. Called dlink and was treated kinda bad. First they were rude to me and then they told me that it was defective and that I would have to pay for shipping to them even though it was defective from the start. They wouldnt even let me talk to a supervisor. So I ended up calling them back and and getting a different rep who said that she could transfer me to a supervisor and then asked for my case number then put me on hold and went and talked to the previous person I talked to. Im assuming they were friends or sat close to one another , but she then came back on and said she couldnt transfer me to a supervisor and absolutely would not let it happen. Anyhow I use skype to make all my calls to companies because skype gives me the ability to record phone calls. I have these conversations as mp3 files and will keep them for awhile.Well the price was good. Free Shipping.

green, value, work well

Pros: We bought 4 of these switches, they are all still working after 2 years (24/7 usage). We have them racked up in a fairly warm rack/area.3 of them were the "GREEN" series, and they run noticeably cooler (quite surprising) You can actually touch the chassis of the non-green edition and feel a difference in heat!Cons: No backplane switch utilization indicators. But it's not a managed switch so that's to be expected.We bought 4 of these switches, they are all still working after 2 years (24/7 usage).

Pros: The switch was simple to install. All I did was attached the hardware to my rack moved the plugs from my old switch into this one and then powered on.I mainly bough the switch to increase my bandwidth at the switch level, not sure how much that really did but I have not had any collisions or errors with the current switch. I would recomend this equipment.Cons: No ComplaintsThe switch was simple to install.

Pros: Simple to install, works as it should. No crashing (as of yet)Cons: Noisy. I have this unit wall mounted on a back wall outside my wife's home office. The first thing you hear if you enter the back office space is the fan running on this switch. I really think that D-Link could have come up with a better design for cooling. Also the port lights are hard to read at times. (could they make the led's any smaller?)Simple to install, works as it should. No crashing (as of yet) Noisy.

I really wasn't thinking when I bought this switch or I would have realized that this unit cannot supply any DHCP addessing so I still have to have another interface for that purpose. That kind of wrecks my one device for all network stuff idea. Oh well, we can work around it.

Juste like the title says. Was shipped fast. You open the box, plug the thing and it is still working well after 2 month. Not restarted yet.

Pros: This product shows how a great tech product is supposed to work. You plug it in, and turn it on.The switch works just like it's supposed to. It's energy efficient. It even does a little QoS (although if you can saturate a gigabit line...)This is a great core network switch for your home. Or a reasonable office switch, if you don't need any specific monitoring, management, or snmp.Cons: Just like the other posters here say, it's fans are loud. Mine is in a utility room, so I don't care much, but I don't know that I'd want to add it's noise to my computer room which already has so many fans buzzing and whirring.This product shows how a great tech product is supposed to work.

Dropped packets with jumbo frames larger than 7k. Had to scale back the gigabit cards. Better overall than Fast Ethernet switches, but does not have near the performance of low-end managed switches. Best suited for small businesses without expansion planned.

Pros: Small, comes with rack mount kit, gigabit speeds.Cons: Two fans, sucks dust, watch out for that.Small, comes with rack mount kit, gigabit speeds. Two fans, sucks dust, watch out for that. A lot of complaints about noise, who is putting a 24 port switch on a desk? If using at home dedicate a closet for networking/server equipment and never worry about noise again.

Pros: When their up a working they work great. Speed and overall LAN environment are snappy and responsive to say the least. We are able to prove easy interoperability to larger LAN infrastructures with little or no connectivity issues.Cons: This switch is on a lightly loaded server rack. So it isn't terribly busy. However, I've now had to send it back for repair twice in less than a year. When it dies there is no indications that is has bit the farm. It registers connectivity and full negotiations but the computers and servers can not reach past the switch to the router. Same problem with both switches.When their up a working they work great.

Price wise these fit our needs for a quick set up, down & dirty deployable rack. But these are causing way to much downtime as we don't have a lot of extra space to lug around spare rack equipment.

D-Link just lost our business.

Pros: Great switch for the price.

Pros: Easy to setup, high performance, reliable, cheap.Cons: Unmanaged, loud.Easy to setup, high performance, reliable, cheap. Unmanaged, loud. Don't put this under your desk: mount it in a closet or a machine room. I'm amazed at how much different it made in a small home LAN, just for samba and NFS traffic. Couple it with a couple of PCI-Express Intel 10/100/1000 NICs, and you'll have a great, stable, FAST network.

Pros: Switch is cheap for the features and does exactly what it says. 9k jumbo frames worked without a hitch. Has never locked up or required a reboot in 3-4 months.Cons: None.Switch is cheap for the features and does exactly what it says. 9k jumbo frames worked without a hitch.

Using it in my home server rack. Freaking awesome. Replaced two lesser switches. Would prefer these switches had the ports in back, but I doubt I'm going to change the whole industry standard.

Pros: I have this switch running with a d-link gigabit gaming router and my LAN flies. The hardest part is getting a computer fast enough to take advantage of the bandwidth. We plugged this thing in, hooked 15 computewrs into it and it just worked right away with no setup.Cons: It didn't come with the screws to rack mount the device. It had the screws to attach the brackets to the unit, just not the brackets to the rack frame.I have this switch running with a d-link gigabit gaming router and my LAN flies.
