I have a modem and router combo from Century Link. Can I plug this in one of the modem router ports and get extra ports out of that setup?
Answered by TPLinkSupportAbsolutely! Simply connect the switch to one of the LAN ports on your CenturyLink gateway to provide additional Ethernet connectivity to your home. Regards, TP-Link Support
Can this switch provide power over ethernet?
Answered by TPLinkSupportHi! No, the TL-SG105E is not a PoE switch. For a PoE alternative, please consider our TL-SG105PE model instead.
Will my tp link router be able to see the devices behind this switch? I want to limit bandwidth to each pc on the router only for internet. Is that doable on this device? 3-5 mpbs internet :/. I do enjoy the product said earlier the TP link router.
Answered by meoffYes that's what I use it for my TP.
Is this an "Unmanaged" Switch device?
Answered by DonaldI'm just using it in default mode but I know it can be configured to do things like add or strip VLAN tags on the ports, etc, because I know someone else who is using one that way.
