    Great switch for the price I got it for. Got it during a sale and does what I need it to do. So far no issues. Worth it if you are looking for a small switch and a steal during sale price.

    I bought this for my wife to use to connect multiple co-workers to an ethernet connection for web-conferences. For this, it's perfect. It is completely plug-and-play. Just plug in an ethernet connection to one of the ports, and the other four ports will spread that connection to a further four devices. This would also be great in a home theater/entertainment center situation where there are multiple devices (like a game console, Blu-Ray player, smart-TV, etc) that can utilize an available wired connection. Devices like that always work better with a wired connection, and this is an uncomplicated way to provide it. Highly recommended.

    Very nice Ethernet switch does the job very well. It looks good and performs as expected. Several devices are connected to my Linksys Velop through this switch and have performed flawlessly since I purchased it.

    We needed this to expand our network to our dining room for working at our table which we used to do wirelessly. It is perfect for that. It’s small and does not take up a bunch of room.

    Bought this Linksys switch on sale. Worked perfectly, and fast, out of the box. Installation into network was just to connect up the LAN cables and the power adapter.

    This is a great way to add more ethernet lines. My router only has 2 ethernet outlets. Send one line from router into slot 5. Then connect the others in 1,2,3 and 4.
