NETGEAR 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Plus Switch (GS308E) - Desktop or Wall Mount, Home Network Hub, Office Ethernet Splitter, Silent Operation, Black

This is basically a plug and play 16 port switch. I use Netgear switches and have had great results over the years. I bought this to replace an 8 port switch to provide more ports.

This product definitely fixed my problem by providing me addition access points for all the stuff I have. I took velcro Command strips and mounted it on the back of my desk. Doesnt take space on my desk and I dont see all the wires.

The accompanying directions were not helpful. The connections were not marked for lan input. Just attached the input at random and the connected devices also at random and everything worked. No software or setup was needed. Not sure why there was an instruction folio.

We bought this for our Starlink Satelite but it didnt solve the Star Link router problems. (not the fault of the switch)

Works excellent

Mounted on the wall, and it works great for the entire house.

Ive been using TPLink brand 8 port switch, but when I added another switch in the home network, its speed went down to 100Mbps. After restart, Gbps speed stays a few minutes then goes back down to 100Mbps. I got this Netgear switch almost at the same price, but much better quality in and out. It stays Gbps speeds constantly. Five stars to Netgear. Good job...

I trust Netgear product in general. My old device ran for long time, maybe ten years. Several instances happened in my home network. It looked like to be instability of the switch. But after I replaced it with this new one, my network problem remained. So it was not the switch at all. But I am keeping the new one.

We used for getting wired connections throughout 2400 Sq ft 2 story house
