    So far no issues. I am using this for the Xbox one X and PS4 pro. No need to use Ethernet for the LG GX oled because it is actually faster via Wi-Fi.

    I bought this switch to replace an aging switch as I moved to 1GB internet speed. Seems like a quality piece and found it on sale at BB for $29.99. Decent deal on what seems like a good switch.

    Plugged it in to my Spectrum modem, connected 4 devices to it. Works perfectly. My Spectrum modem had four ethernet jacks. I needed six ports. Simple solution was to get this switch.

    I switched my wireless network to the Google Mesh setup, which only has one Ethernet port. This makes it possible to hardwire devices easily. I could have changed the firmware on my old router, but this was far easier.

    Very little change in speeds after using this in combo with 100 ft cable to get hard wired internet downstairs for multiple devices in our entertainment center. Does it’s job well.

    Have used many of these. Always dependable. Metal construction makes it very sturdy addition, especially at the jobsite it is installed in. Just plug it in and go.

    Back a few years ago you didn't have to worry about internet connectivity when dealing with home A/V systems. Now every piece of an A/V system has an ethernet port. I prefer to use wired ethernet connections to my components. Using this switch allows me to use one cable coming from my router to service all the components. Linksys is a name that I have confidence in due to owning previous Linksys components and I have not been disappointed.

    Works well but is a 'dumb' switch. if you're looking for something like a router, this won't work but will be fine for a simple home network.
