    Its a small switch that generates no heat and does what it's supposed to do. I did a speed test before connecting the switch and after connecting the switch and saw no difference in my speed tests. So the switch doesn't slow your internet speed at all.

    Not much to say other than it works just fine. For whatever reason some of these new routers only have one port, so now I have all my important devices wired through this

    A great little switch. Easy to install and get up and running. Our house was wired with some ethernet ports, but the previous owners either took the switch or never used the ports. No issues here!

    Fine Ethernet Switch for a reasonable price. I have trouble connecting certain ethernet communications devices to a spare router I had (turned off wifi so I thought it would act like a switch) but no go. Replaced that with this inexpensive switch and it worked first time out. Very pleased.

    An old router with four each physical ports decided to stop functioning. I needed to replace the bad router with something that would extend outputs to printers and another computer without the WIFI. This solution was quick, inexpensive and provides the necessary lights to see when the equipment that is connected to the switch is talking to the network. Thanks!

    The humble ethernet switch

    Recently, I did some reconfiguration of my home network and needed more ports than are available on my router. Having spent many working years as a network engineer, I picked up this 5-port Ethernet switch. I chose it by experience and reputation. Gave me not only the extra port I needed, but by offloading all my devices from the router, I actually am experiencing better performance, since I am not bogging down the router. In particular, NAS doesn't experience network loss because of too many collisions on the router.
