<br>I've got a 16-port 10/100/1000 switch from Trendnet that's been running my home network for the last couple of years.

<br>You certainly can't go wrong with an HP switch, but I have nothing bad to say about the Trendnet. It's been sitting in a rack running without any attention from me since I got it and it works fine.<br><br>-Kevin<br>
