    This 8 port ethernet switch was the perfect addition to our home office. It has helped organize all my connections and give me the extra boost we needed. Mounted easily inside my cabinet too. Thanks Linksys.

    Does what its designed to do at a reasonable cost. Lightweight made it easy to mount under my desk with double stick tape to avoid drilling any holes. Has been reliable since adding to expand the ports on my Eero setup.

    Had my suspicions if I would need a crossover cable or need to configure any Linksys dashboards, but nothing required. If you want to simply expand the 1 or 2 ethernet ports for your home modem just plug it in and go.

    It's a ethernet switch. It's small and works great. I use it to hook up a wifi router and some wall Jack's in garage. Have zero issues with it. All my network gear is linksys. Easy to set up and maintenance free.

    It is easy to set up and seems to be working just as designed. I have it connecting the router, and a synology backup drive. There are lights that are flashing when data is transferring. I like the small footprint.

    A Fast Data Switch for My Home Network

    I needed to add additional LAN products to my home LAN system. I chose this data switch so it matched the Linksys EA5400 router I have at my home. It worked perfectly, is fast and reliable. I like the data lights being in front and the cables in the back.

    I have used linked switches for years and have deviated only a couple of times( and had good luck with other brands). I stayed with it because it best met my immediate need to replace a switch and was a good value. Pleased with its performance.

    Works as expected, I’m seeing improved speeds over my old one. Just wish the power supply input was on the same side as the etherner ports.

    This ethernet hub works great. I’ve purchased two of these so that I have less traffic on my wifi network. In my living room, I have my smart TV, Apple TV, PS5, and Nintendo Switch plugged all into one hub without network performance issues. In another room I have two Apple computers, an all-in-one printer, and NAS plugged into another. So far everything has been working as it should without any decreases in my upload and download speeds.

    This reminds me of the old analog video and audio switchers except you can use all the ports at once it splits off the signal so you can use multiple ports at the same time for the untech savvy everybody else already knows what it does.
