Linksys SE3008: 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch, Computer Network, Auto-Sensing Ports Maximize Data Flow for up to 1,000 Mbps (Black, Blue)

This was the answer to our need. And it’s compact and easily hid.

WORKS GREAT! Does what Its supposed to do and fast!!!! Thanks

After reading reviews, I was pleasantly surprised by the initial quality. Tight little switch, and feels well made. Getting full switched 1Gb/Gigabit rates. No heat or loose connection issues. Works have preferred power and RJ-45 connections on the same side for neatness, but its fine as is...

This is a very good ethernet switch for the price. Its very simple to set up; simply plug the power adapter in to an outlet and the cord in to the back of the ethernet switch, and then run your main ethernet cord from your router or gateway to to the first slot of the ethernet switch; after that, you can plug any other devices in to the remaining open slots on the ethernet switch using ethernet cords, and they will all simultaneously be connected to the internet through your local network at full ethernet speed. I have 3 devices simultaneously hooked up with one open spot remaining for another device. If you have more than 4 devices, youll need to get a switch with more than 5 ports since one port needs to be connected to the router in order for the other devices to access the internet using your local network. For a relatively cheap solution to having all your devices hooked up to the internet using ethernet, its hard to beat something like this. Its far faster and more reliable than using wifi.

I used to use my old routers as switches thinking it was the same as using an unmanaged switch...oh I was wrong. I am using my 2 switches with my two towers

Gets the job done. Needed a splitter to network my four computers in my loft area. Had I not been so hasty to purchase I probably would have gotten the comparable model TP-Link for half the price, but Linksys products have always been good to me, and Im sure it will be in use for years to come. Setup was obviously quite easy: plug in the power adaptor and plug in ethernet cables. It doesnt get much simpler than that. Tested and is running at full gigabit speeds and it is nice to have all my machines in the room hard-lined and networked to each other for fast file transfers. Would I buy again? probably not, Id get the TP-Link for $15 since just looking for a simple 5-port switch, but I dont regret the purchase and wont be returning for the $15 I could save... next time though, will opt for the cheaper option unless its part of my critical network infrastructure.

This switch does exactly what you want it to do. The only thing I dont like about it is the network connections are in the front and power goes in the back. I wish everything went into the back with the LEDs on the front. Thats my fault for not looking at it harder before I ordered it. Other than that it works exactly the way I want it to, so 5 stars is and easy rating for me.

I’ve used these Linksys switches before in my work business and at home and they’re pretty stable and solid. Delivery was prompt and packaging was sufficient.

They work great and replace the ones that lightning took out.

This is my second 8 port switch from Linksys. I have daisy chained it to my first 8 port Linksys and have several devices now operating off my Spectrum Router. Works good and is well made.
