I was looking for a good DIY option to extend LAN coverage throughout my home and it’s been nothing short of perfect. Tons of speed and I don’t have to worry about any lag while gaming, since I’m “hard lined” into my PS5.

I used this switch to solve a simple problem. I needed to add a workstation to my basement and I did not want to run another dedicated cat6 to do it, so i initially was going to buy just a splitter, but for just a few more dollars I was ably to get this switch that provided a much better solution. Strong signal, extra ports and easy to install. Highly recommend over those cheap splitters.

Reliable So Far

What can I say? It's a switch. It's been 100% reliable so far (I've been using it for a couple of months). Only problem I had is that when I installed it between the modem and the router, I was not able to access the router. I don't think it's a problem with the switch though, as research showed it's a common issue and when connected after both (connecting router directly into the modem and the switch after the router) the problem was resolved.

It works great, like a switch should. It's out of mind and just keeps going. In fact, I don't even remember where on my network this thing is. It may be in the garage or attic feeding a few different appliances or it may be in storage because I have a number of switches throughout the house. Either way, it's good since it hasn't required me to find it and replace it, lol!

I basically wanted to connect all of my pcs via ethernet because I planned on doing a lot of file transfers and a I needed a switch asap. This one was the cheapest and available at the time. I've had it running for a while and no problems connecting to the internet or transferring files.

This is a great little switch. It's heavy in weight and feels top notch. It's outer case is made out of metal and with 5 cables hooked up, it sits nice and flat on the table. I have a PS3 , PS4 , roku3, and a smart tv hooked up to this switch and it works flawlessly. It looks good too. Not like other cheap brand switches. Only wish Best Buy had the 8 switch in store just to have a few extra ports. Great brand, great quality product, great performance, and great price. Thanks Best Buy.

I purchased this switch to connect two eero satellites to the eero gateway, and I must say it has been working flawlessly so far. Its small size is also a great advantage, as it makes it easy to place anywhere in my setup.
