    What can I say. Got this when I got my Google wi-fi as there is only one ethernet port out of the router and I needed 2. Pulled out of box, plugged in power supply cord, ethernet cables and bang I had internet to my network.

    This switch connects my PC and two printers directly to the internet in My home network securely. I have increased my peace of mind by hard wiring these devices instead of relying on WiFi.

    We had an OLD (10+ years) switch which was no longer state of the art. IT guy told me to get a new one a this was recommended by Best Buy salesman. Works great. No problems. Cables stay attached which the old one was no longer doing.

    This is a good product because you just plug it in and it does its job without any further intervention. Plus it comes with mounting screws with drywall anchors. Had everything I needed except a screwdriver.

    I needed another Gigabit Ethernet Switch to support our new Fiber internet connection. Glad that Best Buy had it in stock so I didn't have to wait for shipping. Plugged right into the network in place of an old 10/100 switch.
