      I get it, because I have a Netgear x4s Nighthawk vdsl modem/router and they provide no support whatsoever.

    It's a switch, not a router.

  Just relax and buy any old 8-Port gigabit switch because you're not gonna need QoS for that size of LAN party..

  For game or video streaming, you're going to need a hell of a lot of concurrent streams to saturate a 1G port and make use of any QoS aren't you??

    This is its selling point. Whether it is true or BS I don't know.

    Latency on congested network

    Nighthawk Switch : 4.7μs
    Standard Gigabit Switch : 451 μs

      Yeah no one is gonna notice those micro seconds or is that nano?

      Unless you hosting the next world tournament for some game live streamed globally you ain't gonna need this just get some standard gigabit switch and be done with it.

      Current standard hardware is more than enough for all users.

  Meanwhile the non 'Gaming' GS108 can be had for $49
  The plastic SOHO version, the GS208 for under $40
  ::edit:: Also the ProSafe range has a limited lifetime warranty.
  This gaming switch is pretty vague on it's warranty.
