    I've used a lot of desktop switches in my career and I always find that for smaller jobs, these work great. They are the workhorses for their category.

    With all the low voltage wiring in our house, having this switch doing the simple job we need without issues is a major bonus.

    Its a sturdy reliable switch. Nothing fancy but there shouldn't be anything that is fancy with a product like this. So far, it has been reliable. Very happy.

    When you need additional ports this is a great product for the job. I've been a fan of Netgear for some time.

    Just plug it in and it works; can't beat that. I hooked this up downstream from my Eero pro router to add ports. Would definitely recommend.

    Great little router

    If you are looking for an inexpensive router with high quality, then this one is excellent. I have my home wired for ethernet throughout, and this router is enough to feed 7 lines with the 8th being the main ethernet. Plug the main into any port and it feeds them all. I was able to transfer ps4 data to another by just connecting cables through the router. It is especially good for going directly into your smart tv’s or pc. And you can set it and forget it as it never needs to be rebooted.

    Performance has been great. Switch is silent, so it sits on my desk all day with no annoying noise. Basically, nothing I'd change on the peoducr.
