    i was looking for an ethernet splitter so i could hook up two devices into one router port, but i was also aware that splitters only allow you to use one device at a time, so i researched and found what i needed was a switch, this netgear switch is awesome, no loss of bandwidth, super easy to set up, im operating three devices through it and no loss of internet speed or power outs, streaming is great as well, absolutely no buffering, this was one of the wisest purchases ive made in a long while, best buy actually had it for 10.00 less than any where else.

    I bought this 5 port switch to use in conjunction with my LTE modem to distribute Ethernet throughout my home. I had it up and running in the time it took to plug it in and connect the Ethernet cables. I do not see a degradation in speed. It has been in service for a month with no problems. My professional experience with other NetGear switches has been excellent. I expect the same from this switch.

    This unit is a life saver. My router only has 1 port and allowed me to connect multiple devices and works flawlessly. Definitely worth it.

    Small, easily mounted out of the way, power cable connects on the back and away from network cables. The ports are intelligent, so no crossover cable is needed to connect it to a router. Perfect for my application in controlling a video switcher from a laptop, with another laptop to feed graphics.
