    It's a fairly simple five port switch and it does not matter into what port the input wire is placed. It is basically a terminal that allows one input to share with four outputs. It is a powered unit with a small transformer, so the unit needs to be placed near a 110 volt outlet.

    Never enough ports on a router but this will get you more ports for what you need. My router sees the other connections. No need to do anything other than plug and go.

    OK, I upgraded an old 10/100 switch to this gig switch so I expected to see an improvement. Setup couldn't have been easier and performance has been great. Really just plug in and go!

    I liked the small footprint and low power consumption. It hides easily in my entertainment center. Plug-n-play. Look for it on sale and keep one handy.
