    Perfect for my entertainment center built in. All the extra wood in my entertainment center interfered with reliable WiFi, but this switch gets reliable, fast Internet to those devices.

    I had a few more devices to connect to my network and not enough ports on my new router. This switch made connecting the extra devices very easy. The unit seems well built and I have not experienced any problems with speed in the connections.

    The Linksys switch is inexpensive, easy to use and gets the job done. It is basically a plug and play device to extend your network when you do not have enough ports on your router. I use this switch in my home network and my business network.

    This switch gave me back my speed on a gig network. The other device was supposed to be gig rated but it was only pushing at half. So it does what it is supposed to do.

    These 5-port switches have been very reliable from Linksys over the years. There's nothing to setup, there's no configuration, it just works and works well.
