The TPLink switch is incredibly easy to set-up. Each port is fully auto-sensing so no neeed for cross-over cables or toggling DIP switches meaning that you can have the switch up and running in less than five minutes.
The performance of the switch is excellent for the price. Even with older equipment still running 100Mbps Ethernet, I have seen approx 50% increase in data throughput speeds on my LAN compared to the OEM switch it replaced.
Overall, I would say the TPLink is excellent value for money. Ideally suited for a small office or home LAN.

BE CAREFUL! There are at least THREE versions of this TP-Link 8-port Gigabit switch:
* the TL-SG1008D with a entirely black plastic case with a single set of ethernet port lights at the front, and the small power socket and 8 ethernet sockets at the back, for 'consumer' use - this seems to be cheaper, since old stock?
* the TL-SG1008D with a stepped white top on a black plastic case (so about 60% black and 40% white) with a double row (1 Gbps, and 100/10 Mbps) of ethernet port lights at the front, and the small power socket and 8 ethernet sockets at the back, for 'consumer' use.
I assume that the part-white case is the newer version. Both have a power adapter (of some sort).
* the TL-SG1008 (no 'D' suffix) which has a metal rack-mountable case, with the lights AND the 8 ethernet sockets at the front and the power socket at the back, for 'business use'. This has an internal power supply, and the 13A 'kettle plug' fits straight into the back.
I got sent the third one (whereas I now discover I wanted the second one) so I had to rotate/reverse it so that the power lead went in the front - thus I can't see the individual ethernet socket lights because the patch cables have to be at the back, where the lights are...
I have seen a fourth version on the net, which has a black case with white round the edges (or a white case with black inserts), however you describe this. I guess this is an even older version than the entire-black-cased variant.
Just make sure you get the type you want!
Congratulations to TP-Link for making a decent switch, and boo! for not distinguishing clearly between the different variants.

This kit does just work. I was getting bottle necks putting everything through my 100mb ADSL router as I'd used all my ports and have four wireless devices. This solved my issues as the wireless goes straight out to the Internet and the wired devices now only use the switch.
Setting up is simple, plug an ordinary network cable between the router and the switch (it's auto sensing), plug into the mains and as DHCP works fine, you're done. You've added an extra six ports (2 are used to connect the devices). This gave me three 100mb ports and seven gigabit ports. This doesn't come with the network cable, but you've probable got lots if you're buying a switch.
