I tend to stay away from any switches that have any kind of control setting and go for simple unmanaged switches, especially if all you're doing is sharing network resources and a connection to the internet.
I'm actually using a TP-Link TL-SG1024S 24 port switch and it's been solid as a rock, both with my older XB6 and my current XB7 gateways. So were my previous Netgear GS308 and GS208 8 port switches.

Thank you! more questions:
1. What port did you connect (XB7 port # __) to (Ethernet Switch port # ___)
2. Did you need to do anything in XFI? Like edit the LAN/WAN
1. XB7 port 1 goes to TL-SG1024S , Port 2 to GS308, Port 3 to GS208, and Port 4 (the 2.5 Gbit) is currenly unused while I wait for a 2.5Gbit NIC on order.
2. No, all settings migrated over to the new gateway flawlessly.
