Are you planning on getting AP's the use central management? Or using vlans or anything else for the switches?
If your new to networking or unexperienced, I usually advise people to keep it simple and stick with unmanaged. .
but if your more experienced or wanting to get into managed switches, then its not a bad idea to try managed.
Thanks info I have never setup APs. I need keep simple so look like a unmanaged would be best maybe the GS308PP
