Works like a charm. I was having problems with an old one, but I got this one, plugged it in and all of my internet devices worked great!

This is the best way to share internet speed. Plug it into a router and let the switch do the work instead of splitting the bandwidth. Make sure you purchase one large enough for your needs.

I needed more ports connections for my home office. This 8 port ethernet switch did the trick. The connections are fast and no freezing I'm using 5 of the ports and its smooth sailing.

the one I got has never crapped out on me and does a pretty excellent job of splitting the bandwidth for all of the systems that are hooked up. not to mention, its not very expensive either

I purchased the NETGEAR - 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch to connect all the various network media feeds into our receiver, Smartv, and specialized media boxes such as Apple TV, Directv etc. Ran a Cat 6 cable back to the router and am able to get nearly the full 100mb download speed to theater as I do directly connected to the router when I run speed tests. Good switch for media feeds and very easy to setup.

Easy to connect with great speed at a low price point

I’m impressed. I’ve been able expand my internet connection to another room and connect more devices to Ethernet without slowing things down. I connected this to my router with a long Ethernet cable and ran that into another room. It does what it claims and maintains my rapid speed.

I have been using Netgear switches for over 15 years and have had very few issues with them. For small businesses this is a great piece of reliable hardware. I like the new Gigabit switches, has decent throughput with multiple PC moving data at once. Doesn't bottleneck as easily as more inexpensive switches.

Good product. Works as advertised. No issues yet..

I now have much faster speeds on my tv, Apple TV, roku, and PlayStation 4 which were previously hooked up on wireless. Switch works great and was pretty much plug and play.

Performs excellent, is plug and play, and all systems are lag free.

I use Netgear products in a lot of the systems I design. They seem solid, well built, and function exactly as advertised. This one has more ports than others at this price range.

8 port switch with gigabyte connections works great on first install not like a switch normally has any connectivity issues even has a power switch to it.

I bought 3 of these for my home. They work perfect and are very easy to set up. My old switches were a different brand and they would not connect at max speed. I have all green lights, no orange. The connections are running the way they should. I have expanded my home network to 2 floors with the switches.

I have bought these before for an office with a single wall port, but the employee has multiple machines. I've never had any problems with them and they are a decent price.

I've used Netgear switches for years in all my home network builds for the last decade and they have never disappointed. You won't go wrong with buying one for yours.

This has to be the best switch available for the money!! I've tried a lot of different ones and this has given me zero issues!

use for whole house Cat 5e network from Cox modem. easy set-up following clear instructions. works very well in distributing feed to points of need.

This product works great. It is in the "brain" center for the network to my house feeding signal to my network outlets. Easy to install and easy to use for a good price.

I read a bunch of reviews on best buy and amazon and they were mostly positive. This is a basic gigabit switch and performs as expected. No issues.
