Customer Ratings & Reviews

I would not recommend anything less than an 8-port switch, this allows 1 port in and 7-ports out. In my home office I have 3 computers, a 4K TV, a Roku, and a printer, this takes 6-ports leaving 1-port for company. I have had no lag or issues while using the office or on any of the other devices running in the rest of the house. Manage up to 7 computers in a SOHO network with this NETGEAR 300 Series Unmanaged GS308100PAS Gigabit switch.

New Internet provider = new home network Needed more ports because I bought more stuff. Have a single port in the room and that was just fine. Then more things got added to each room, then I got a new Internet provider so things were faster, and these do a great job making sure that all of the computers, TiVos, and smart TVs have all the conductivity they need.

This switch is solid metal and a pretty good bargain on sale, and actually cheaper than the plastic switches. I have a few older versions I've used for years now and have had no issues at all. If you see one on sale, buy it. Way better than the lightweight plastic switches that tend to fail after a few years due to poor heat dispersion.

This Netgear switch box appears to be very well made, works like a charm with no problems whatsoever and takes up very little space with leaving enough room to easily insert or take out a ethernet cable. Highly recommended.

I was out of ports on the router provided by my ISP and needed to find a quality, compact switch with multiple ports for a reasonable price. This switch was the perfect solution with ports to spare for future additions to the network.

Set up is simple. Simply plug it in, and start connection your network cables. I haven't tested transfer speeds, but my network hasn't skipped a beat. I ended up buying a second one, so I had enough to network the rest of my house.

Best switch I've ever used. Easy to use, no configuration needed. Will definitely deliver those gigabit speeds, even on non-cat 6 cables at shorter distance. Great to use if you have multiple video consoles.

If you need a unmanaged Router this is the one for you...

Simple to install, as an unmanaged switch should be. I have not measured its performance, but it seems to be quite a bit faster than the older Netgear switch I replaced.

This is truly a plug n play switch. No addon config required. And with all 8 ports working simultaneously, I do not see any drop in speed

the switch does as advertised...expands my eero base so i can have 2 or 3 devices hardwired to the eero through the switch

Easy install, plug and play. Fast connections between computers, printers, server.

Need more ports for my home network. Can't beat the price for this perfomance.

This is a set it and forget it which is awesome. I plugged it in at the source coming into the house, checked my internet speeds throughout the house and voila, my sustained speeds changed from 70-90 Mbps prior to connection to 180-230 Mbps afterwards... This was just unbelievable to me since I didn't understand that the old 10/100 switch I had was causing the low data speeds. It's completely logical but when you wonder why your network isn't getting what you're paying for, you look into the router, which by the way was limited to 100 Mbps as well but didn't fix the issue. This was the final link in the puzzle. As a special note, I didn't know what a managed switch vs unmanaged meant. Managed means that you'll have the ability to restrict bandwidth (usually for kids or a roommate taking up too much) as well as other customizations by each of the 8 Ethernet ports. Unmanaged means there isn't any configurations on the switch itself.

Added all the ports I needed. Plug and play no issues at all.

It was easy to install and connect al my outlets, perfect size

After having the cable guy come to my home a few times, we figured out I was using two many smaller devices and needed to limit the number of them off a single line. Upgraded to this one and everything has been working great for months now.

This switch is automatic, just plug in & it's ready to go. make your work office network location more accessible for more network options, such as network printers, laptops, guests plugins for network/internet connection.

I have Ethernet run to a few rooms in my home. Well, when I switched internet providers, I needed a bigger switch since the new providers modem is outside. This fixed my problem perfectly and was easy to install.

I got this product since I needed more ports to have ethernet connection to my devices and this device solved the issue. It was simple and easy to install and work with my other devices.
