    The NETGEAR - 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch gives your home the network capacity to handle greater bandwidth. The Wi-Fi would begin to slow when to many things were on, so when I added this for those things at home that can use a network cable, everything begins to run smoother and faster.

    This switch is perfect for just a few home devices. It gets the job done at a cheap price. If you have only a few devices that need Ethernet this is awesome.
