    Love the size and performance of this hub. Works great to hook up my printer and computer dock. Bought a second one to hook up two engraving machines to my computers. They work well.

    Replaced a pair of 8 port Linksys switches with a pair of netgear switches. They seem to be working fine; I would recommend them.

    This is a very reliable product allowing multiple devices to use the network. Easy to set up and very outstanding overall. Nothing bad to say, get one!

    Ours works fine but some of the ports have gone dead. After about 2 years of use. Also I am starting to see connection issues on some devices and I am unsure if it is this switch or the device or the cable. So... I duno

    I should have known better than to try a $15 GigE switch. It was terrible and I returned it after 1 night. First, it feels cheap. Second, who puts a freaking power switch on a network switch? Ive never in 30 years desired to turn off a switch. Third, it took my network offline 4 times the first night it was installed. I woke up to a slew of service down notifications in my inbox from my NAS. Do yourself a favor and buy a real switch, not this toy.

    I have couple of the 4 port switches and this 8 port. All are gigabit of course. I have always been very pleased with their ease of use and great performance I get with these switches. Highly recommend these.

    This is a nicely priced switch, with great looks and performance. I have a white Synology NAS box and white Apple Router sitting with it, so it matches the décor nicely. I have the NAS box connected to it, which is the highest volume device going through it, and have not suffered a bit of performance reduction. I have it standing vertically using the included stand (feet may be a better word), but it does have rubber feet built into the bottom of the for horizontal orientation. The LED lights for each port change color to indicate the speed the device is connecting at, and there is a front power light as well. The unit runs very cool, despite the plastic case and passive cooling. I have a small gripe with this router, but it is not enough to deduct from the rating. The unit is very light, being that its made of plastic, and this allows it to be moved by the heavier (and in some cases stiff) cables plugged into its ports. Not a big deal, but worth mentioning. I have the 8 port version and still have 4 ports left, so I expect to have this switch for years to come!
