    I bought this switch because I needed more ports. I was impressed by the solid build. the metal case is very sturdy. I can't say that I've run any types of metrics on it but it is doing the job for me.

    Looking for a new switch for Gigabit speeds to replace old 10/100. This was priced nicely at the similar cost of 4 or 5 port versions.

    I use this to hard-wire my electronics in the living room. I had issues with my WiFi being too slow. This has sped everything up so I no longer see buffering.

    I used this switch to hardwire all of the devices in my living room. In occasion I am having some connection quality issues that only exist on the devices hooked up to the switch. Cables all tested fine. Fairly certain its the switch.
