    It dose what exactly what I expected and what it’s supposed to do. Not much to say it’s a network switch and it works. Nothing fancy, just plug it in and it works plain and simple.

    Worked Perfectly

    The switch provided me with the needed extra connections for my home network. We have a beach house that is all on one floor and the bedrooms got lousy Wi-Fi signals. We tried using Wi-Fi extenders but the signals were too weak. So we had the all the bedrooms wired for Ethernet, and use this switch to connect all the Wi-Fi antennas from each bedroom into the living room. The switch worked perfectly and needed no instructions to use. Just plug it in and watch the lights come on.

    We purchased this switch as a replacement for an old Netgear switch that we've had for at least 12 years, but we needed one with newer technology so we decided stay with Netgear.

    Dam this is a speedy switch. Has room to grow. And you don't have a dedicated input. So mix and match.

    Excellent network switch, just plug it in and go. No configuration to worry about. No issues at all. One thing to note -it only has 8 ports, there is no LAN port for the uplink. Older switches used to have a LAN port in addition to the number of ports listed on the product. This means you can only have seven devices hooked to this switch.

    This is a well made product. I selected it to replace a defective network switch. I only wish Best Buy had a switch with more ports available at the time I purchased this one

    Not much to say, 8 GigE ports for a very reasonable price. This is un-managed so basically plug in and go. Make sure you use ethernet cables that are at least labeled 5e. While Cat 5 will work 5e is designed to reduce interference and provide better reliability at the higher thesholds of GigE. Cat 6 even better and will support 10 GigE as well. Switch has been very reliable and I really push a significant amount of traffic through it.
