Product Description
NETGEAR's FS726 series Modular Fast Ethernet Switch gives you two uplink bays for copper or fiber gigabit modules. It lets you link up to high-speed servers, connect switches, and combine fiber and copper networks. And whether you need gigabit uplink or additional port capacity, you'll have the flexibility to upgrade your network as your business grows and as your budget allows. The high-speed, auto-sensing, 10/100 Mbps ports in the FS726 series support Auto Uplink for easy-to-use, automatic configuration. They also provide non-blocking, wire-speed filtering and forwarding of traffic. Easy-to-read, front LEDs show ongoing switch status and simplify troubleshooting.

 Working fine for me March 24, 2008

I'm using mine to switch absolutely every critical voice and data packet my company produces, and it hasn't let me down yet. The simple web interface has allowed me to do some remote debugging, which is what was important to me. I haven't put the fancier features to use yet.
rock-solid performer for the price February 22, 2008

This is the second FS726 I have bought, and they both are rock-solid performers for the price. Never down, nice VLAN features, fast enough for most apps. On top of that, they are rack-mountable, easy to configure, and cheap.

I'm sure you've all heard the adage, "If something seems too good to be true, it probably isn't" - well that applies to the NetGear FS726TNA.
It appears to be an attractively priced "smart switch" to use NetGear's terminology, and offers some management capability, including SNMP and STP, we are told, with the addition of a firmware upgrade, available Q2, 2005.
In early September - Q3, 2005 - I bought a pair of them, no SNMP, no STP, the current firmware is buggy and the "management" web server feature hangs, essentially turning it into an unmanaged (dumb?) switch.
Tech support is either clueless on the workings of SNMP or tried to "fast talk" their way around questions, I'm not certain which, but neither bodes well for a user in need of help.
We're now into Q4, 2005, and no sign of the promised upgrade, if what you need is an inexpensive, managed switch, I can not recommend this one.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
About a year after this review was written, after the firmware upgrades were released and did not completely provide the promised functionality, Netgear support contacted me, and replaced both of my FS726TNA switches with FS728TS switches.
The new switches delivered the goods as promised and my faith in Netgear has been renewed.
