    It wasn't the product I needed but that didn't matter. It was the service that I received. It was great from start to finish. I will continue to buy all my electronics at Best Buy...

    Its 10/100 at this price..Expand your wired network with this Linksys SE1500 Fast Ethernet switch, which features 5 auto-sensing 10/100 ports that make it easy to connect up to 5 compatible devices. Plug-and-play installation enables simple setup.

    Great product. Bought two because it was on sale. Able to make multiple Ethernet connections from one Cable. Basically like a phone line splitter. I was able to connect two computers and a credit card machine.

    Bought this to split the internet connection in the living room to my xBox 360, xBox One, and Panasonic TV. It's doing exactly what it's supposed to, plug everything in, add power, and boom you're good to go.

    We needed additional ports for behind our tv. This was the perfect price and did the trick. Best buy associate recommended and didn't have us overbuy.

    This is a great little device. The only downside is that if it all slots are in use it has a tendency to flop over backwards. I usually end up putting a book or something heavy on top.

    Had to return it for replacement. After about a week it started dropping out. It's supposed to be a good router and all. Anyhow I wasn't happy about going back to get another one. The replacement seems to be doing alright. Lets hope it continues to do so.
