    Simple and easy to use. Affordable. Not sure about qos. Quality of service. Let me get it three stars because it's neutral there's better features that can be needed but you have to pay more for those.

    I have one ethernet cable that runs from my router to my media center and this device helps me connect more devices with an ethernet cable which gives them a more stable connection for streaming videos, and connecting to the home Nettwerk highly recommend

    Unfortunately I returned the network switch due to negative reviews on line. Did not open it or used it. I didn’t want to take the risk of this dying on me within a year like so many have reported, so I return it and went with TP-Link for 20 bucks. Should the TP-Link break at least I’m out 20 bucks. Maybe you can take the chance with Netgear but many have complained. Thanks BB making the return process easy. Good luck for those who buy this.

    Product is good , app to admin it is paid after a certain amout of days. You can still admin and access it on the local network via a browser . Just sucks to find out they charge for mobile app access.

    After three months, still cannot get it to work. It’s going in the trash now because I still cannot get it to work, even after resetting it multiple times. Not plug and play, odd DNS errors I cannot figure out why, slow and non user intuitive interface. Shouldn’t be this difficult to get it to work correctly

    Don’t use with Google Nest systems.

    This can be a pain to manage if you home network uses any IP other than it’s default of 192.168.1.xxx. It seems to ignore DHCP until you login to the web management the first time. Also I haven’t figured out where the conflict is, but using this with Google Nest Wi-Fi causes anything on the switch to not be able to connect to the network. But this problem does not occur with an original Google Wi-Fi puck, only the Nest version.

    This little switch is perfect for providing a managed network at a remote spot. Setup and connecting was a breeze.
