Customer Ratings & Reviews

Straight forward device that is exactly what was needed. Always trust netgear switches.

Excellent product, always stay with known name brand

The ethernet switch is easy to install and works flawlessly. The switch is designed well and is compact and unobtrusive. It's has 5 ports which is more than enough for most users.

I needed a simple unmanaged switch and this Netgear product has worked great for me. I just plugged it in, made the ethernet connections and its worked without any problems.

Perfect size and very fast working pace Very easy to use

We have ordered a number of these switches to extend the network in our office. We only have a couple wall ports to each office, but some of our employees need to connect multiple devices. This switch is an easy solution to that problem.

Bought to extend the number of Lan ports from my AT&T gateway. I am not a network savvy person but was able to hook up and use my laptop via the switch. Switch worked fine right out of the box.

Love this lil thing , great buy! If you really need to hardline this gaming pcs

Excellent switch. These always work and I do not waste my time or money the other ones out there that have far less reliability

Purchased this 5-port switch for a client, to replace one that had seen too many lightning strikes. Have always had good experience with Netgear equipment. I like that it's more metal/less plastic, and the lifetime warranty. Very robust and well-supported equipment

Works as advertised - a good purchase for me. I got a new xfinity modem/router and my 6 tb wdmycloud nas drive would not be recognized by the network. I brought this switch and put it in between the xfinity device and the nas drive and problem resolved. The xfinity device only had 2 ethernet ports leaving me 2 short of being able to hook up my nas drive, smart tv, android box and laptop. In addition to resolving my NAS connection issue it resolved my lack of port issue. I have all my connections hard wired for speed and have a free port on the mode/router to add a game system.

It works just as advertised. No issues. Would buy again if i needed it.

This unit is very easy to set up/install and takes up very little room on my desk. I bought it at the advice of a Best Buy associate so I can operate a wired network including my desktop PC (upstairs office), my notebook (downstairs music studio) and my BluRay player (living room). I haven't run the cable for the BluRay yet, but both computers are working very well. I'm using Cat 6 cables to 'future-proof' the system.

Setup was easy and is currently working fine at this time.

Plug and play, nothing to configure. Solid construction. I suppose it is worth a few extra bucks over the cheap plastic ones (this one has a metal case), it will probably run forever. Only downside is that the power port is on the back and the ethernet ports are on the front, but it's not a deal breaker. Also note that there is no way to turn off the flashing lights. Indicators show speed 10/100/1000 for each port.

I bought the NetGear 5 plug switch box when I bought the Google Nest. I have several devices plugged in to my modem and needed another plug for the Nest. It works great. I was able to unplug almost everything from the modem and plug them into the switch box. Now I have more room if I need it. I started to buy one of the larger ones but I was not sure how well this one was going to work. Now I wish I would have bought one of the larger ones.

Works great, use it every day with zero issues at all

It is a nice size, and it does not slow down the speed at all. It works just as advertised and I can't ask nothing more of it.

Handy little switch to put behind the tv and have everything hook up to.

Not much to say other than it works, just like you think it would.
