I insist on Netgear for the networks I manage which are restaurant based point-of-sale systems and computers. The Netgear switch is reliable, predictable and holds up under the most miserable conditions.

With all honesty, you can't get much simpler. Plug and play, works all day. Never had a problem with it, and I doubt I will in the near, foreseeable future.

This is a big improve for anyone who likes their fast internet without interference. LAN cable is much better than Wireless and these is a must have for streaming 4k content.

Good little switch for the money. I needed it for a spot where I needed three items wired and this little guy fit the bill perfectly. I also have a couple of it's big brother that has 10 ports and none of them have failed me yet.

Does what it's supposed to. Compact and easy to hide, wall mountable if needed. My only complaint is that it says 5 port switch. While technically true, one port is used as in so you only have 4 going out. If you tell me 5 ports then I should be able to connect 5 devices to it.

I’m sure that it is a fine product though it did not work for our application. Therefore we did return it to Best Buy.

With the purchase of this item I connected many devices to the internet and I saved money by not buying long Ethernet cables. This item works perfectly which is why I gave it a rating of five stars.

As an IT Consultant, I have clients who often have the need to plug several network devices into one network wall jack. I usually have them buy this switch. They've worked well, and have been reliable.

We had a faulty switch and needed a quick replacement to get those work stations back up on the network. Best Buy was close and handy and the product was reasonably priced and did the job.

I purchased this Ethernet switch to replace an older model that was a bit slower. So far it's working great and I have no issues, as long as it works as intended, I would recommend this product highly.

OK Switch

I generally slightly prefer the ProSafe "business" class switches. But, Best Buy does not stock the GS105NA in many of their stores. Needing this quickly, I purchased it for light home usage.
Seems to work just fine and I would be OK with buying this again if I did not have time to wait for an item to ship. Still, I'll continue to buy the GS105NA or GS108NA whenever I have time to wait.

I've never had a problem with these switches. They are always solid, high performing and do not overheat or have any type of cheap quality build issues like other brands. Netgear is the best.

Much easier than running a second cat 5 cable. Plug in the main cat 5 cable from the router then plug in short cat 5 cables to each unit. Off you go. Currently have three unit sharing one cat 5 cable.
