    I needed a replacement gigabit switch, but didn't want to spend a lot of money on one. I also needed it right away, so ordering online was not an option. This Linksys unit fit my needs. The only caveat that I should mention is that the indicator light per port, does not show you if it is connected at gigabit speeds vs. 100 megabit speeds. The switch I was replacing had 2 lights per port. If both are lit, it indicates a full gigabit connection.

    Plug and play what else can I say. My only regret is that I wish I had just paid a little extra and bought one with more ports. But it works perfectly
