NETGEAR 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch (GS308) - Home Network Hub, Office Ethernet Splitter, Plug-and-Play, Silent Operation, Desktop or Wall Mount

Netgears newest line of switches functions flawlessly and I haven’t had the first issue. These are plug and play and require no configuration to implement in your network. I’m running them in a fairly complex setup and haven’t had the first issue. They are priced fairly as well and although I haven’t had to contact support for this particular switch, their support is second to none and they have always been responsive for me. I use Netgear both personally and professionally and this switch is no exception to their quality and performance.

I feel connected like never before

I use a switch to connect three video editing PCs. The data rates on the files I use range from 50mbps to 450mbps - well below gigabit 1000mbps.

Wifi is nice but sometimes you just cant beat a wired connection. My TV was having issues getting a steady wifi signal and I needed to expand the ports of my router. Product works great! Easy to use and easy to set up. plug and play and forget.

Works great and can take a bullet

IT WORKS

Perfect addition to my network to expand to hardwire 2 more sonos devices

Good value, product worked well when turned on.

I have always had two networks in my house, one directly on the ISP router LAN, one off an inner router than treats the outer as a WAN. The ISP controls the firmware in the outer router and I dont trust them. But a situation arose where I needed both networks in other rooms, and I had only one network cable fished through to those rooms. So, I went to smart switches and VLANs. I bought three of these, one 8 port and two 5 port.

Bought this to support our new office network and it has actually improved our performance overall. Very happy with it and highly recommend it.
