    I recently picked up one of these gigabit switches and it's working great in my family room. I have an xbox one, PS4, a google home, and my smart TV all connected. It's great that I no longer hear my kids complaining about lag when they're playing online!

    It works, but found out my router has an ethernet port. I only needed 1 spare port.

    This switch is a simple device that helps provide multiple ports for ethernet needs. I would recommend it if one has the need for such a device.

    This switch was a perfect fit for our needs. We needed to split the Ethernet service to a computer and a printer. Did the job as expected. Simply plug the unit in to power and then plug in the incoming and outgoing Ethernet lines and you are in business! Good product!

    I had to return this product because it only connects to one ethernet port so I had to get a NETGEAR router. This switch should be used to extend your router connections.

    Works excellent with AT&T fiber, I had to get this because my builder did not extend the fiber to all rooms. Excellent product to extend your network.
