    The Linksys - 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch worked as I expected it to. Did not read instructions, just plug and play.

    Great quality I definitely recommend if you need something to be able to connect multiple devices to your network that doesn’t require an access point.

    After ordering a recommended product online that didn't do what I was told it would, I went into a Best Buy store and searched for myself. The 5-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch was exactly what I needed and is doing its' job. Very satisfied with this product.

    I am not using this switch other than to increase the number of outputs from my router, but it works fine and there is absolutely nothing to setting this up. Switches themselves do all the work for you in terms of learning the network addresses of your devices and routing data traffic.

    Great for use in a home office. Simple plug n'play installation. I connected to an empty port on my router then, using patch cables, I connected 2 PCs and a smart TV. Easy peezy.

    I bought this at the recommendation of the man who installed our fiber internet. I literally just plugged in the power, connected the ethernet cables I needed, and all my devices were connected and operational. Easy as 1 2 3. Affordable and high quality.

    I purchased this the Linksys: 5-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch after my NETGEAR ProSAFE 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch (GS105 v5) had failed. I use this switch to connect my computer, printer, and internet phone. The metal case is durable and I have not had a single problem. Great product!
