    I don't have much knowledge of networking solutions, but it doesn't get easier than this. I have an ether net connection from my router plugged into this and then connected my Philips Hue hub and a desktop workstation and everything has worked flawlessly and receives a full speed internet connection.

    I needed a way to split my ethernet connection between 2 devices that are far from my router. This has been an excellent solution to that problem. Easy to use and it is plug and go. Essentially gives you 4 additional ethernet ports.

    This 5 port 10/100/1000 gigabit switch works flawlessly. The lights make it easy to identify both the speed and activity of each port and it's compact size allows it to be tucked in where ever you have space.

    This an excellent 5 port unmanaged router. Netgear has a great warranty too, also in my opinion you would never need it. Netgear equipment is built to last! Something like this is great for the network jack behind the TV multiple game consoles.

    Our apartment has a community internet with built in WiFi routers in each unit. There are no ports in the router except for on wall port for one Ethernet cable. Since I have multiple devises that are not WiFi this worked great for getting everything connected to the internet. Think of this as a power strip for electrical cords. You run the one ether net cable into one of the ports, then use the other ports to connect to your devices and each device will run off the main connection. I’m using it for my computer, Xbox and smart bridge and have had no issues.

    Easy to expand home network to the far reaches of our house. Wired internet is much faster than wifi. Using this switch, I didn't have to stretch 4 cables across my house to hook up a computer, tv and blue-ray player to internet. Just one fifty foot cable.

    This is an unmanaged switch so is a fairly simple device. But this has been working without complaint since the day it was installed months ago. The exterior of the switch is all metal and this little thing weighs much more than you think it would. That adds to the "feel" of quality and adds a nice bit of mental confidence in believing the switch will last a long time. Not much else to say about this. It is a simple device that does exactly what it is supposed to do.

    The NETGEAR - ProSafe 5-Port 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch was a great price and does exactly what I needed it for. I use to split my one internet connection to a bridged connection to my desktop PC and a weather station that is broadcasting 24 X 7. I have one port left for the future.
