I had a couple different switches daisy chained together when half my network stopped working. Turned out one of my switches died. I was looking at a replacement, when I decided to buy one with a fan and more ports. This looked like it would work and would give me a little room to grow. I was up and running in minutes after it arrived. Has performed without a hiccup since. I'd like to say it performs above my expectations, but since my expectations were high, lets just say it works like I wanted and needed it to.

I installed this in a network closet about a year back. After about 8 months the fan started rattling badly and making groaning noises. I woke up this morning and found my network down. Went to the wiring closet and found the DGS-1024D hot to the touch, all lights lit up and a thin veil of smoke coming from it. I unplugged it, let it cool down for about 2 hours and plugged it back in. No lights, nothing. Dead as a doornail. It worked great when it was working but frankly I'll move to something that won't burn my house down. Thank God I wasn't on one of my business trips this week! Mailing it back to D-Link today along with a complaint to the CPSC.

There isn't much to say since in and of itself this is a pretty simplistic device with a simplistic function. It mounted well and is built well. I was glad to get the 24 ports and use one unit as opposed to the three we had. I really thought the price was great compared to other products like it in its range as well.
