    I purchased this switch to add a couple of ports at my pc location. I like it because all the connections are on the back so you get a cleaner install.

    Good—just not for my particular situation.

    I wanted to use this as an Ethernet Switch between my modem (which has a single LAN port) and my router. My modem is located in a cabinet where my living room electronics are installed and is connected via a CAT6 to my WiFi Router, which is in the middle of my basement so as to cover the whole house. I wanted to use this switch to hardwire my living room devices instead of the current WiFi-only connections but I could not get more everything to connect at the same time with this thing. After a bit of trouble shooting and research I figured it out—it wasn’t installed behind a DHCP device. Unbeknownst to me my modem does not support DHCP and to work correctly this switch needs to be installed behind a device that does (like a router). I verified this by connecting multiple devices to the switch behind the router. In that configuration, it worked. So, in my situation, the switch was worthless. But in other set-ups (behind a router or a modem that supports DHCP) it would probably be just fine.
