    As with most things Linksys I have had no problems with this unit. It filled a niche need at just the right time.

    Cost effective way to deliver quality internet to other devices by being hard wired. Just plug it in to a router or modem or wifi extender and it will allow you to put up 4 hard wired connections. Works great for what I use it for

    Although our wi-fi works pretty good, when my children play online gaming they were having lagging issues. Purchased this device to run cable directly to their gaming console and the problem is solved.

    Works right out of the box, but I wish the power plug in section was not on the opposite side of the ethernet plugs, but would be better on the side so that I could attach to the back of the entertainment console without bending the power cord.

    Bought this to provide multiple outs to other wifi routers and other devices in the house. Simple setup as its just plug it in and plug the other cables in. Keeps the gigabit speed as I have not seen any degrade.

    If you plan on getting this advertised unit. Beware you will not receive the item listed. You will be disappointed! Bestbuy hasn’t changed the picture, your item will have plugs in front and worn be fancy looking. This is why 3 stars. But it works as intended. I was able to connect 3 devices that kept dropping WiFi. Now hard wired connections non dropped signal.

    For the needs of expanding a single hardwired network port to multiple clients, this is a simple, clear, efficient and very good value in an accessory for that purpose.

    It's a good basic unmanaged Gigabit switch. The thing I like about it is the sturdy shell. I bought extras but I ended up returning it. I probably would rebuy it if there's a sale as it's definitely a good product for what it is.
