    Due to some limitations, I needed an ethernet switch to help with our internet and WIFI in the house. We have a very, very good Linksys wireless router, and I use the switch to hardwire my desktop computer downstairs to the internet. It works great, and allows the WIFI in the house to be used for our wireless devices first. We have had no issues with this.

    Worked great. My house is wired with cat 6 and needed this to make the wired connections. Simply plugged everything up and worked great. Getting up to almost 1g of speed to computers and other devices throughout home; way better than what I was getting through wireless.

    NOTE there are only 6 plugs. 1 in, 5 out. So it is a 5X extender. Box says 6 devices, but IT is one of those 6. Call me a hayseed, but I don't count the junction box as a thing. Fast, reliable.

    This helped me ditch my inefficient powerline adapter for real speed. I went from 50 mbps to 150 thanks to this hub. I can now stream and game with perfect connections. The light stays on and is a little bright, but I keep it in the closet. I’m so thankful I got this device!

    One of my ports went out in my router, which only left me with 3. This switch essentially gives you 4 extra ports (you'll have to use one of the ports on the router to connect the switch). Gone are the days when you had to use a crossover cable to connect a switch, so you don't have to worry about that either. Couldn't be easier, good price as well.

    Needed to split my connection at work for a recent training 4 ways (fifth port is input) ran down to bestbuy and picked this up. It was literally plug and play, we were all up in running in less than 5 minutes. No set up or configuration needed. just plug it in and go, no easier way to share a wired network connection.

    I only have three Ethernet connections on my Netgear Orbi router. I needed this to add my Network attached storage & additional travel laptop. Handles the extra connections I need. Connection to the router is 1 gig while the NAS is only 100 meg. Handles both fine.
