Customer Ratings & Reviews

This has the right amount of connections/ports that we needed for our home use of this product. Always make sure that you have a product that allows for the right number of ports that you will need.

This unit is very easy to familiarize yourself with, you don't have to be a big techie nerd to figure it out. In most cases you jist take it out of the box, plug in the power and your accessories, and you're done!

Bought this item to replace my old Netgear wired router 5 port 10/100. My network currently has 2 ps3's, 1box, 3 pc's 1 laptop and a roku. Running all the time and i have not noticed any lag for and systems so far.

This is my second Netgear 8 port ethernet switch (same model). Needed it for different room. Just plug ethernet cable into router and then into switch, you are ready to go. I bought my first one years ago, and still using with no problems. Easy way to add more wired devices to your network. Now have living room and office covered.

Easy to install , small and practical! The connection is fast as described

This replaced a product we had, simple to replace and works great

A few years ago, I needed to expand my router's wired capacity and I bought one of these. Ever since, whenever I've needed to expand my home network, I buy another one because they're reliable, fast and easy to set up.

I have found that Netgear products are reliable, good value for the money and do what they say they do -- including easy set-up.

Plug and play and speeds at 1 gig.......good Price

After months of the interned dropping I narrowed it down to the switch. Purchased the 8 port NetGear switch and all is working the way it is supposed to. And it was cheaper then Amazon.

This is foolproof product. If you need more than one network ports.. Just simple plug in from wall then out to any devices and don't need to be in order. Switcher hub will know which one is out and input.

It doesn't tell you if the speed for the port is at 10/100/1gb. I have tested and it is ok, but I got what I paid for and the price was good. Too bad it didn't have a wall mounting template - easily overcome, I photocopied the back and instant template - sad part is though, there was room on the instructions for them to have printed a template

Excellent price, and quality. Recommended to friends.

Can't go wrong with Netgear. I've been a long time user of these dependable products. Ive upgraded to more ports, my older one did not fail, still have it. Most likely gift it to a friend in need.

I purchased this so I could hard wire the connections to my TV, BD player, surround processor and iTV. It hooked up quickly without any issues. It has slots on the bottom so you can mount it if you would like. I chose to do just that. Works great and I never have to worry about my wireless bandwidth. Great addition to my system.

Good price. Easy set up. Nicely packaged item. Fast performance.

This product was packaged appropriately yet it was easy to unpack. The directions were clear and concise. It has been working and meeting my expectations since I purchased and installed it.

This is the second one of these Netgear 8 port switches I have installed in my network as it expands. They are both as easy as plug and play to use. I could also say set it and forget it as I have never had any issues with the first one after 2 years of 24/7 usage. Simple and effective I would recommend one to anyone looking for a few more ports to their local network.

I needed this after getting a new router and a few new devices and not being able to hardwire everything. Now all my game systems connect to the internet at super speed.

I preferred getting an 8 port, but almost didn't because, based on the boxes, I thought it must be a lot bigger. After finding the size information, this is not the case. Set up is easy, although initially my wired connection worked but the wireless didn't. A reboot of the router resolved this. It's nice that all ports or smart and it doesn't matter the direction of the data flow.
