    Can't be more simple. Your router goes in one end, and any other devices come out the others. I got this because my router is a Google Nest Mesh network so there was only one output on the router. The hub helped me hardwire a PC & Philips HUE, both of which wound up working flawlessly.

    Perfect way to balance out demand for surfers against the gamer's who are on the net all day. It doesn't play favorites when assigning who gets what when. Everyone gets what they need when they need it as far as speed is concerned. A true problem solver.

    I got an ethernet cable and wired up my PCs in the office. The PCS both get in the 900s through these switches. I was going to get the more expensive ones but these ones work great! My office couldn't be happier. I got Satellite service and was only getting like 50 mbps over wifi which wasn't going to fly.

    I bought it to use for work. My job has all these things that need a physical connection and I was stressing out. This switch works beautifully with all 3 of my devices and I haven’t had any disconnects since I’ve bought it.

    This was my second Netgear ethernet switch. The Netgear GS105 5-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch and it's easy to install and setup; it's literally plug and play.

    I recently moved into a new house and had the contractor run CAT-6 cable to each room in the house. I'm using these Netgear switches in each room to run ethernet to computer, television, PS5, printer, etc. Plug and play simplicity, and the signal quality is excellent. Highly recommend.

    This switch has been a fantastic buy for me. I use it daily for both my PS5, PC, and other devices that use hardwired ethernet. I have experienced no issues with it.

    I had one Ethernet cable coming from my modem which I fished from the living room to the attic and down to my office. With this device I was able to shoot another cable to my bedroom, spare bedroom and created an access point for our guest room. I know nothing about networking and this was easy to set up and use!

    Attached this to me new EERO Wi-Fi system so I could directly attach cameras and a stand-alone digital storage unit. Plug it in, plug in your devices...that's it. Worked like a charm very first time! Everything running as it is supposed to!

    Impressed so far. I am used to buying the sub 20 dollar units that seemed to work a while and then crap out. Hoping this one works much longer. It’s obviously a much more robust design with the metal housing - much more so than the cheap plastic units I had been buying.... time will tell.

    Need more ports? This is a great device that does exactly what it says. NETGEAR does a fantastic job making this network switch easy to use (literally plug in the cords) and manufactures it with a high standard -- well build and sturdy.
