It's great that you're looking to replace your old Ethernet switch! Considering your budget and the fact that you have 7 ports in use, I'd recommend looking at Netgear and QNAP switches. They both offer reliable options within the 100-200 euro range that would be suitable for a home/small office setup. Make sure to check the specific models that fit your requirements in terms of port count and any additional features you may need. Here are a few options to consider from Netgear:
Netgear GS108 - A basic 8-port Gigabit switch that's easy to set up and reliable.
Netgear GS108PP - If you need PoE (Power over Ethernet) support, this switch offers 8 PoE+ ports for devices like IP cameras or VoIP phones.
For QNAP, the QSW series offers some good options as well. You can explore the QSW-1105-5T, a 5-port switch that provides Gigabit Ethernet connectivity.
