Netgear GS308E vs. TP-Link TL-SG108E - inexpensive managed switches
-
Hi,
I'm in the market for an inexpensive managed switch. Looking at Amazon, two candidates seem to be Netgear GS308E and TP-Link TL-SG108E.
I think what I need is simple port-based-VLANs - I just want to separate out my A/V equipment from the other IoT devices. My computers are already in another subnet, firewalled from from all of the other devices.
Does anybody know if either the Netgear or TP-Link switch is better at protecting it's configuration controls? I mean their webserver GUI.

TP-Link have (earlier) had a bad reputation , due to Vlan1 leaking.
And them not seeming to care .....You might consider the D-Link DGS-1100-08 too
https://www.amazon.com/D-Link-Ethernet-Managed-Internet-DGS-1100-08V2/dp/B08P2C2GXF/I have 20+ of these D-Links , and they are easy to configure , and does what they should .. Max. 32 Vlans i think in the 1100-08 , enough for home use.
