Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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.

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.

Netgear Switch works great. Needed a reliable product and it works.

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.

This Ethernet switch was recommended by our Geek Squad technicians and it was very easy to install and works great.

Does the job! Not much more to say. Nice little unmanaged switch.

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.

I needed more Ethernet ports than my new wireless modem had do I bought the Netgear 5 port switch. Installation was a breeze and it does exactly what it is supposed to do. It is a nice compact size. I highly recommend it.

Great basic switch if you are in a pinch. Full 1GB speed.

Works really good. It helps to connect all my 3d printers on to the switch and not have to worry about wifi disconnecting. I would recommend this product.

Reliable! Relatively inexpensive. For the job!!!!!

Works great. Allows me 4 Cat 5 outputs. Small but concise.Netgear

Small and compact but works great. Super easy to install and use. Good price because it was on sale.

Easy to install, plug in the power and then plug in the ethernet cables - no switch management required. Twinkle lights indicate connection speed and data transfer activity. Excellent inexpensive switch you can quickly add if you need some extra ethernet ports in an area. Can connect 10/100/1000 MBPS inputs at same time without slowing down faster connections.

Easy to set up and the product line has been reliable. This is the second Netgear Proline switch that I’ve purchased as an add on to an existing one. The older one still works after many years and I expect this 5 port switch to be the same.

This is amazing for my apartment provided internet service which only has 1 ethernet port on the router. It has allowed me to connect multiple pcs, with no speed loss or latency degradation. Another huge pro- It is literally plug and play. There is no software to set up or anything.

Never had a problem with it basically plug-in play very easy to use as cut down on wires going everywhere and and it’s just very very useful tool..

Easy, quick install. Flawless performance, no signal loss. Sturdy, metal case, not plastic.

Provides a consistent connection and reaches max speeds across the ports.
