    Work's as expected. Now I can hardline my smart TV, cable box and home office workstation. Working remotely, using wifi was to unpredictable. Now that i'm plugged in, I haven't had a single issue.

    The Ethernet switch worked exactly as represented. I plugged it in, and it worked. What I failed to notice, however, was that it did not support POE. Since I needed POE, I ended up returning it and buying a different model.

    This works exactly like we wanted it too. We are very happy with this switch. We need to be able to use one ethernet cable to work both tv and Apple box. This is perfect.

    Using this ethernet switch to connect several devices from a single LAN input. This switch does not assign individual IP addresses to the outputs and cannot be used as an ethernet router.
