I've inherited a few 5 and 8 port consumer level "unmanaged" ethernet switches.
You know, the DLink, Netgear, Linksys type.
If I use them for quick testing on a small job or sell them as used, I want to know they don't have bad ports, defective firmware or overheating problems, etc.
Of course, the bequeather(s) haven't a clue whether they were ever used and some of them look pretty clean.
Anyone know of an under $250 solution to test these switches (and others perhaps) using either a software or hardware tester.
I simply don't feel like using Qcheck between two computers for 10 minutes .....port by port by port by port, but I will if I have to.
Thanks.
