    Works as supposed to and has been giving me great service. With most routers offering only four ports sometimes you need to plug more devices and this product will give you four more ports.

    Needed to split an Ethernet connection between a phone and my Mac. This worked perfect and literally was “plug and play” - super easy solution.

    Alex from the Millenia store in Orlando FL recommended this because my old one wasn’t pushing enough power. I am very happy with the recommendation and I’m grateful Alex was there to help me! Connected access points and Mesh Points for a speedy lag free connection

    Bought this switch to expand my network to include devices that were running over WiFi. Decided for security purposes to wire things directly to enable greater security capabilities. Switch works exactly as expected as I have come to expect from Netgear devices....

    Well made product. Opted of the metal cabinet instead of the plastic one made by the same manufacturer as I have found the metal ones are more forgiving when mounting on the wall. Overall a great product and can’t beat the price.

    The Netgear makes a perfect Cat5+ slitter, with no loss of signal. All steel construction, excellent quality. This is a five-port, but I also have an eight-port I got nearly ten years ago, and it performs flawlessly. Netgear makes the best Ethernet switch, in my opinion.

    Purchased to replace an older unit which couldn’t handle the speeds we had upgraded to from our cable provider. Installed without issues and Speedtest showed our network to be delivering connection speeds of 117 Mbps.. our previous unit was only pushing 25Mbps.

    This switch came in handy when the router went on the fritz. With the addition of ethernet cables of varying lengths we were able to set up a functional wired network in no time (and the price was right).
