Customer Ratings & Reviews

This NetGear 5-port switch replaced an older version of the same model. The existing one is 8-years old and still working but I wanted the newer administration and connectivity benefits of the v2 model. Install was a breeze using both the web interface and ProSafe plus utility. The switch is running fast and the console is showing a rock-solid 1000 mbps link to the other devices. Amazingly gaming performance has improved (didn't expect that). I just ordered two more for the rest of the house, and yes, those are also 8-years old and running perfectly but for a little money the LAN will be new again. Buy it, you won't be disappointed! NetGear keeps delivering awesome products!

Super easy setup -- just plug it in and go. No need to adjust any settings although that is an option if you want to give higher priority to certain ports or configure other advanced settings. Since my mesh router only has 2 physical ports I needed this device to connect to other hard wired devices (computers and printers) in my office. Very good speeds as well as I didn't notice any significant decrease in speeds vs. directly connected to the router.

Another great switch by Netgear!! Bought this to replace a low end switch in my garage and wanted one that would be reliable. I love the build quality, ease of use and features. Very easy to set up and log into the switch to change settings. I have several other 24 port Prosafe switches and love them!!

Easy set up. Plug and play. Internet goes in one port, it splits it out to the other four ports.

great value. Easy setup. Must have for older setups

Great item easy to install no software to install works great I would recommend

This is a perfect product for helping to extend your home network. Pretty easy to use.

This is a nice switch for testing a few interconnected devices without interrupting a normal network operations. Review the instructions and information before using if you have never worked with switches before.
