    Excellent switch for needing to add some wired connections on the other side of the house. Have had many of these unmanaged netgear switches and this one is no different, simple and to the point.

    Using this in my home which is wired for Ethernet. This switch went into the in-wall junction box, low power and low heat for in-wall use. Coupled with a Netgear AC WiFi Router and a Netgear 5 port 10/100/1000 switch in the media cabinet, we are achieving top speeds from the inbound Internet pipe for optimal network streaming.

    When I need a networking solution, one of the first places I look is good ole Netgear. They still make their switches with a metal housing and with durable ports. I've set up an ethernet system in my living room with this so that everything that has an ethernet port on it, or is compatible with a USB to ethernet adapter, can have a fast, reliable internet connection. Works perfectly.

    I purchased it back in December and so far it has been working 100% without any issues. It cost a little more than the plastic version of the switch, but I found the cool blue color and metal housing worth the price difference.

    I needed an unmanaged switch to expand my in-house internet connection. This worked easily out of the box and have no issues. I especially appreciate the metal case and easy mounting options.
