    We had this switch with no problems until lightning took it out. Since it worked so well the first time, we bought it again. Up and running without a hitch.

    Works great, no fuss. This switch was a replacement for a competitor's switch that died after 10 years on the job, so all I care about is compatibility and reliability!

    Purchased this switch to replace an old one that stopped working. Straight forward to install and setup. Literally, plug it in to power and plug in your ethernet cables.

    Does what it needs to do in the background, without fuss. Once it's set up, you don't have to think about it. Just what you want in a basic item like this.

    Netgear continues to make a solid working product. Although others can and do make these switches, I prefer to stick with Netgears reputation.

    I needed to replace a switch because I needed more ports, figured I'd go gigabit while I had the opportunity. Just plug it in and you're good to go assuming your network is set up already.

    Needed to expand how many ethernet connections i had. This product does great at giving you the additional ports. Only reason im not giving 5 stars is i did notice a drop in performance for my netgear ac internet adapter. I have that plugged into my router directly now. Otherwise great product!
