    It does what it’s supposed to do at a good price point. This is my second one of these. The first o e was left behind when we sold our house. Very easy to set up by just plugging in the network cables and the power cable

    I had another brands switch die killing my wired network in the middle of updating Linux servers. I replace all of my network devices the next day. Netgear was the only product I trust for consumer grade products. Netgear has been around a long time with reliable products without going into the professional networking devices.

    This is a solid, easy to use ethernet networking switch. I have had zero problems with it since setting it up, and have had no bottlenecking issues at all that I have been able to detect, even with a PC, wired Roku running 4K HDR video, PS5 online gameplay, and PS4 Pro online gameplay all running at the same time.

    Our older NetGear switch finally went bad so we replaced with this version. Works great and easy to set up. It also has a visible on/off switch that the previous one did not have.

    Purchased the switch to replace an old router that wasn’t needed in the network for internet connectivity. Wasn’t sure how it would work. Can’t be more satisfied. It actually speeds up wired connections.

    These switchers just work flawlessly. I had a few other brands that failed after a few years. Now my home is all in on this switcher, no failures, a very stable and reliable product. A tiny bit more expensive, but worth the investment on reliability.
