Switch vs Router?

I wasn't saying that. One of the Newegg user review posters
was saying that there were various performance problems
being reported for the newer 12V 1.25 Amp boxes. And that
some models had a problem when over 4K were used. Mine has
always done Jumbo packets, with no problems using 4.5K packets
(I just haven't tried the 9K settings).

It's hard to say what happens when one person posts that,
could be anything like another switch inbetween source and
destination on the lan. I've used 9K since I got it though
I think many systems at that time had Realtek cards whose
driver limited them lower like 7K.

By the way, there are no such comments about the 8505T,
just for the 8508T, and they are essentially the exact same
thing; just using a version of the same chip that is made for the
number of ports for that box.

Sometimes Newegg reviews are pretty frustrating if they seem
to indicate a problem but not enough info to know if the
problem was the device or user, or problem with the device
that a more savvy user could overcome. I wouldn't consider
it much of a problem if it was limited to 4K though, still
better than 1K5.
