    This worked great, but what I needed was a switch with POE for a cam. My mistake. Returned.

    Great 5 port switch. Good price. Does exactly what I need to add some devices and I have it mounted under the shelf to stay out of the way.

    Linksys - 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It is a Plug - N - Play installation. Plug in your network cables and plug it into power and your done. It has worked without a flaw since I installed it. I'm using it to share a single CAT6 cable from my router to the master bedroom with a smart TV and a Roku box. The only negative is that the status lights are a little bright for a bedroom environment. It would be nice to be able to turn them off or at least dim them.

    i use ethernet switch in my work from home setup. i have multiple devices in my home office connected to this switch, which i keep under my desk. i then run one long ethernet cable to connect the switch to a router that's in the next room over. it's a bit convoluted of a setup, but it's very functional and does the job well. if you use this in a bedroom, you may need to tape over the lights which can get bright in a dark room.

    An old router with four each physical ports decided to stop functioning. I needed to replace the bad router with something that would extend outputs to printers and another computer without the WIFI. This solution was quick, inexpensive and provides the necessary lights to see when the equipment that is connected to the switch is talking to the network. Thanks!
