I'm looking for two new switches for my network.At the moment i'm using a old unmanaged 10 ports sitcom switch which is full and i need more connections. My rack is connect with a old router using only the switch functionality. It's also full and need more connections. Thus one switch is for my rack and one switch for the house. I want to connect the switches with 2x1Gbps. I also want to connect my server and unRAID with 2Gbps. All equipment in the house will have a 1Gbps connection. So i need switches which support LACP. Maybe in the future i want to update my AP's. Maybe it's nice if the AP's are the same brand as the switches. What do you suggest? 

 

Edit: searching for a fanless model.

Thank you.

 

Interesting switch. If i'm correct this switch is fanless. I was forgot to mention that i search for a fanless model. It also supports LACP. Any particular reason you suggesting a Netgear? Good experiences?

Thank you.

I have the GS108T model, and it's very good. I haven't used a GS716Tv3, so it's a blind recommendation.

Okay, appreciated.

I've another switch on my list that is the Zyxel GS 1920-24. It's also supporting LACP aggregation. It's has a price of 155 Euro.

Not sure if this one is fanless...

From these three, i would avoid the D-Link one, I have terrible experiences with their products.

I'm using a HP Procurve 1810,  fanless supports lacp, vlans etc.

Okay that is clear.

I think the HP 1810 has one disadvantage it doesn't support IPv6... The Netgear and the Zyxel doesn't have this problem.

 

Edit: I'm not sure about the Linksys...

Any switch will forward ipv6 packets.  The procurve can't be managed by ipv6 if that sort of thing floats your boat....

Ah, thank you for making this clear. I didn't know.
