    Worked great - used in a college dorm where they provide access to one gigabit port, needed multiple ports to setup for desktop computer, Xbox, laptop. No issues!

    Using this ethernet switch to connect several devices from a single LAN input. This switch does not assign individual IP addresses to the outputs and cannot be used as an ethernet router.
