    I bought this hoping it would have the light indicators on the front and ports/power on the back but sadly that is an old model that they don’t make anymore. Beware if purchasing. Works great though otherwise, just deceiving.

    After 2 months it has started dropping more than half the packets passed through it. Definitely can’t stand up to actual gigabit internet...

    This product said is was plug and play, however it would not setup with all of the equipment I had, and only some would work. I return this product within 24-hours and would not recommend this to anyone.

      Hi JPH717,

      This is totally unexpected as we built the Linksys SE3008 Ethernet switch to be a plug and play device. We could have let our Escalation Engineers check the unit further and provide assistance. Should you have any Linksys products in the future and need help, please don't hesitate to drop us an email at [email protected] so we can sort things out for you.

      Regards,

    The Ethernet Switch worked wonderfully for 107 days. And now that it’s passed the return date, it doesn’t want to function anymore. Never again.

    Constantly dropping signal

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I may have gotten a bad unit, but when I hardwire directly to my router I have no issues. But into the switch it takes 15 minutes for my computer to stop dropping the signal every 10 seconds before it finally works. I've tried multiple cables and multiple devices, happens with each one. I'm returning this and getting a Netgear.
