    New router only had 2 ethernet ports (Linksys Velop Mesh). I was able to feed one of those lines into this then send lines out from this to 4 devices and worked immediately. Handles speed and large data dumps over the network well. Small and the LED lights are bright enough to be noticed. Overall: Would buy again

    Works right out of the box and has been running since with no issues. Status light and indicators are bright so its easier to see what's going on. Feels lightweight yet made of durable materials.

    Easy to install since it’s plug & play. Ethernet from the to the router, then to the switch. From the switch, to my computer, the TV, and a back haul to a bridge router in the garage. It’s an unmanaged switch so you don’t need to plug the cable from the router into a specific port on the switch. Works great!

    Bought this because my router only had 1 LAN port and needed a second one. Easy to install and seems to be working well. Nice little unit for the price. Plus I still have room for expansion if need be.

    I bought this new 5 port ethernet switch to replace an older model I had purchased about 8 years ago that finally failed. I trust Linksys and they have not let me down. Very easy to install, simply plug in your cat-5's and plug it in. One blue light for power and 5 green lights, one for each port that flicker when traffic is present. Price was $5 more than the close competitor, but I feel it was worth it!

    Use this to hard wire into my Xbox instead of wireless. I have a mesh WiFi system with no extra ports so this works perfect and still has more ports left still.
