    Our broadband was upgraded to GB fiber, so the 100mb switches needed replaced. These metal Netgear switches over the years have been reliable, with an occasional power supply failure.

    I've only used for a little while, but it was really easy to setup (just plug it in) and it has good speed. Can hang it or put feet on and sit it on a shelf, so pretty versatile that way.

    Gave it 5 star since I have nothing to compare it to. It does what I need it for, ran Ethernet cable from fiber optic modem to Ethernet switch which supplies high speed to my home entertainment center, tv, 4k player and receiver. Improvement of hardwired over WiFi.

    This did the trick and allowed me to activate ethernet outlets through out home to provide direct dedicated speeds versus wifi lag. Happy with this reasonably priced item. I work from home so this provided me with a more reliable network. Easy to set up and no extra steps taken since installed.

    The design is simple but efficient and elegant for its plainness. The manufacturer has a reliable or even stellar reputation, and that brings solid comfort and purchase confidence to the consumer. The design is aesthetically pleasing, and the product's performance is outstanding and without blemish. I have used such before and will continue to patronize this and other merchandise from this vendor for reasons previously listed.
