Don't expect anything fancy out of it but it should be fine if it can provide 100Mbps

What, you went from $20 to $100? What the hell happened?

 

Just get this if cost isn't the deciding factor: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833122610

im not getting them on newegg. lol I snagged the cisco one for $8 on eBay

[JewishBacon]

Honestly dont waste your money on the unmanaged crap from cisco, but for 8$ you cant beat it I guess..

Lol your profile pic suites this topic I guess. why dont you like the unmanaged cisco stuff?

[JewishBacon]

Its junk IMO, Id rather pick up like a 2950 or 2960 to be able to have the ability to log into it if its acting up. Plus ive seen a bunch of that stuff get installed where I work and shortly after it gets replaced with actual cisco equipment.

well, it will be withing smacking distance of my desk so if its acting up i can just pull the plug. and besides, $8 for something by CISCO cant be TOO terrible.
