D-Link Ethernet Switch, 5-Port Gigabit Plug n Play Compact Design Fanless Desktop Switch (DGS-1005G),Black

This is a consumer grade switch that works as expected and doesnt cause slow-downs on your network. Im used to using high end professional networking gear in my office environment made by D-Link and have become a fan of their reliability. I decided to try their consumer grade switch in a home environment and couldnt be happier. Plug it in and go, no fuss and no mess, it just works.

It burned out after only 15 months.

Right out of the box to quick plugin and operation. Supports switching both my sattelite TV receiver and a Blu Ray Player with Netflix and Vudu for movies. Nice product.

Mine has been boring, just like I like them. They have a rounded top, so you wont be able to stack them. They probably make them that way so you cant do that and overheat them. They just plug in and work, so there isnt much to say. It has been reliable. I forget its there at all. It plugs into the Internet router, and into it is plugged computers, printers, and a Monsoon for streaming TV.

I had high hopes for this switch after reading reviews. Unfortunately I will have to replace the two I purchased. I use Windows Media Center 7 throughout my house. I have had continual network problems (Network Issue Macroblocking and stuttering) with these switches. Once I bypassed these switches, no problems at all. I think I need something with more overhead. I wouldnt recommends these if you are using Media Center.

This switch becoming temperamental, it has to be restarted to get all ports working from time to time, I am not very happy..!

Fixed my router issue.

Plug and Play Dummy Switch worked like a charm to exend my network in a place I needed it! Ive been using D-Link switches like this one for years and if you just need to plug a few things in where you only have one run. This is a good selection. Also it supports Jumbo frames.

Looks good. Super energy efficient. And the LEDs give you a good idea of what is happening with your network connection. I like.

Working great for the last 6 months. Have a NAS, WDTV, Denon AVR, PS3, Wii and HDTV all connected with a hard wire connection to another floor to the AccessPoint. It handles all the traffic without pause.
