    I wanted to use this to create more lan ports but only 2 ports would work at a time. I ended up returning it... bought another router instead.

    Magic Little Device

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    After updating to a new Comcast Router, having only 2 Ethernet ports, I was short 2 more. One was needed for a WD Network HDD, and I tried unsuccessful to utilize an older (but working) Netgear 4-port switch I had laying around. Other devices connected to the switch worked (a high speed printer HP Officejet Pro X476dw), but not the WD Network HDD. Then I bought the TP-LINK TL-SG1005D 5-port Gigabit Ethernet switch...and magic happened: I Just replaced the old switch with the new one, without any need for configurations etc...and the WD HDD was recognized right away and now works perfectly. This TP-LINK TL-SG1005D switch is very inexpensive and saved me a lot of trouble. I highly recommend this switch.

    I am extremely pleased with this switch and I can hardly believe it! I just plugged the dang thing in, rebooted my equipment, and everything worked. Simple as that! I could not be happier. I definitely recommend this switch, especially considering the price point for a gigabit switch!
