I have had several switches die on me, including a d-link and a netgear 10/100 5 port switches. I read all these positive reviews on amazon of cheap ones (TP-Link) and they don't really tell me the risk level of them overheating and being toast. Maybe switches are less hot these days, as they've gone green, but for my application I can't have one that dies. I intend to hook up a computer used for futures trading to it, with many streaming charts (I have 14 monitors on that computer). If it failed I could be in deep trouble. The only switch I have that is still working is a Linksys 10/100 and am converting over to gigabit.
What switch brand is reliable? I'm temped to just buy Linksys again, but maybe there is a better choice?
