    This switch is capable of gigabit speeds as well as it looks great. It has 5 ports which I found convenient as most switches in this category are 4 port switches. Good buy, 10/10 would buy again. Perhaps I'll pick up another one for the living room.

    It has been working great right out of the box. Since it is just a basic switch with no advanced features, it doesn't really have anything to evaluate. It has not caused any performance or connectivity issues that I have noticed.

    Linksys switches have always been very reliable. I have had other hubs/switches fail from other manufacturers but not with Linksys.

    At my son's college, they only had one ethernet port that worked in their dorm room, so only one device (laptop, ps4, etc) would work at a time. This allowed more than one device to use the port. He and his roommate are very happy!

    I bought this to expand my network to my smart TV. I was using the Cinema thingy from Directv to do it wirelessly but it never seemed to work. I put this switch in and I now have network to my TV, DVD player and Apple TV. Just what I was wanting to do.

    The Ethernet switch worked exactly as represented. I plugged it in, and it worked. What I failed to notice, however, was that it did not support POE. Since I needed POE, I ended up returning it and buying a different model.
