    Great Simple Switch

    During the pandemic I suddenly had three people working from my home office when I used to have just one. To get better internet speeds I needed to increase the wired capability in my office from one computer to three. This switch was the answer. It is plug and play and has worked flawlessly. I now have three wired internet connections in my office and speed test show no loss of speed on any of the three computers. If you want a switch that will let you configure VLANs this is not the switch for you. It is a simple switch and does what it is supposed to do.

    This switch was purchased to replace a Netgear 5 port 1Gb switch. Its lights are not as bright as the Netgear's, so it is less annoying when I have the lights off at night. Able to transfer a 700MB+ file between two computers at around 6 seconds. Great switch!

    Was an easy set up. The on-line help and registration gave great instruction. I also liked that it has multiple Ethernet connections, do not need any extensions and signal works in all rooms well.

    I bought this ethernet switch to expand my router's capacity. It was a snap to hook up and works beautifully. One note, though, be aware it does not come with an ethernet cable, so you will need to purchase that separately.

    The Linksys - 5-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch does its job. It had good reviews. I have had no problems with it. I recently upgraded my house for faster speed (cable modem, gigabit router, and this linksys switch) - I get great speed between devices.
