    Easy to use and with the amount of cords I need easily fills this with room to spare. I have had no lag problems, outages or hiccups. This has made my life so much easier then running splitters from my input lines directly from the box. Great Job

    Purchased this hub to connect gaming systems to a wired network rather than using Wi-Fi. Performance is very good and allows our systems to download and run games very well with no noticeable impact to each other. Would certainly purchase again if needed.

    I have a home office with a lot of network devices - a raided threadripper, raided NAS, wifi6 hub, laser printer, voip box, and sundry development boards. This switch connects them all with great speed, and it is rock solid. Get one.

    Finally hard wired all components including mesh router and it made a big difference, Netgear made it easy. Now I don't have to deal with any disruption to wifi coverage.

    Already purchased (2) 4-Port NetGear Gigabit Switches in last 3 weeks. Purchased this 8-Port NetGear Switch to keep in reserve for anticipated future use. When we moved into our new home 5 years ago, prewired the whole home with Cat 6 cable and installed a whole home LAN(local area network), along with fiber-optic Internet. This year started expansion with (2) LG OLED TV's a Rachio 3rd Generation Sprinkler Controller Wi-fi enabled, Tivo TV boxes along with an outdoor digital antenna. All these new devices needed more cable connections chose NetGear switches the BEST for their ease of installation, reliability and well known Plug & Play. They just work! Connect them and forget them. Extremely pleased with their peformance. Purchased the 8 Pperformance switch 2 weeks ago.

    It just works! 8-port gigabit switch provides great speed at the sweet spot for value and functionality. 5-port sounds like a good choice until you consider that it’s only +3 ports above a patch cord.

    There's not much to say about this Netgear 8 port switch. Just plug it in and it works. I have a 1 gig network and I'm getting 1 gig speeds. I had a Netgear five port switch that still works well and needed another few ports.

    I use this as a second switch. I have router which goes to a switch, then run a cable from that switch, then to this switch, then to various devices. Just plugged in and it worked perfectly no settings. Perfect for me.
