    Good size and performance. As always my Best buy team knew where to find it. I needed to work with my Eeros wifi system.

    I bought this when I found that the wireless signal in my house wasn't consistent enough for multiple games and videos to be in simultaneous operation. It's extremely easy to install and use, literally plug and play, and provides smooth ethernet connections for multiple computers. I wish I had been using this all along.

    One of the drawbacks of eero wifi is there is only one direct LAN connection you can use. With a few smart products and computers out there without Wifi capabilities, you will need to probably plug in more than one device. This solution is perfect. No loss in speed of wired devices either.

    The NETGEAR - 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch - White did exactly what I want and is priced well. Best buy offers great products and I am able find what I want easily on their website. I shopped several other site and this product was available to be purchased and picked up the same day.

    I've heard that switches all go out eventually, but being as they're so cheap, you just buy another. This switch seems good. Wish there was a way to turn the lights off though, but I just try to stick it in a corner where it won't annoy me at night. Have 3 devices hooked up and no loss of speed at all!

    Easy switch to expand LAN ports… Bought the NetGear Nighthawk Wi-Fi router that only had 4 LAN ports. This switch allowed me to add all the LAN ports I needed. Easy to use and high quality hardware.

    I used the switch to expand the connection capability of a modest home entertainment system, many of whose devices these days have updatable software and various types of audio and video streaming. This simple switch works great with no more setup time required than plugging in the various pieces of equipment.

    This is one of those products that is at its best when you don't know it's there and frankly I had forgotten I even purchased it. I really liked that it was at a great price too!

    Great small switch. Clean, decorative. Able to sit on desk or dresser to get internet from central wall jack to all devices on the dresser. I have used in my home to extend ethernet hard lines from a wall jack to the TV, DVD, DVR and Ethernet Backup Drive.

    I've never run into being out of ethernet ports on the back of the modem before, but it happened. I did some research online and for the price, was feeling comfortable with this. Boy am I glad i went with this one. Peace of mind as this was super easy to install and fees very well built. Super super happy!!

    I purchased this to hard wire my online equipment from a 4K Vizio, PS3, PS4 and Roku 4k Ultra. It all works perfectly through this Netgear switch. Quick and simple to get up and running. A must have piece of online equipment to have for a better internet gaming/movie connection when streamline.

    It's a basic 5 port switch. No bells or whistles. Works great. Getting just under full gig speed (~950Mbps) on my gig speed network, which is better than expected in a non-lab environment). This is a plug it in and forget it device.

    Well, I needed this switch right away. Searched online for the best price and then went to my local Best Buy store here in Bloomingdale. They had the item, matched the price and I walked out with it. Went back to the office, plugged 'er in and everything worked just as it should. I love that store.
