Very reliable and works great!
Bought this for my games and home theatre. Works really well. Wish the power cord was on tge same side as the ethernet ports, but that’s how all of them are. Really great price for a 16 port switch. Very reliable. Just plug and play.

Good Switch Choice
Plug and Play works great as expected. Tried 2 netgears that both died after a week, finally decided to go Linksys and have been impressed. All ports filled and lots of traffic, no issues.

Great home switch
I needed a few more ports for my home network. This is a perfect switch for my needs. Didn't needs too fancy, just move packets forward. Price is perfect, does all that I need. I can always trust Linksys for my networking needs.
