NETGEAR 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch (GS608) - Desktop or Wall Mount, Home Network Hub, Ethernet Splitter, Silent Operation, Plug-and-Play

Not much to say except I took it out of the box, plugged it in and it works as it should. With the current $25 rebate, this is one great deal for a gigabit switch. Unit runs cool (unlike other reviews) and I like the color coded numbers for speed - nice touch. I like it so much I bought another one so I got two for the price of one which in this day and age is a real plus. I dont think you can go wrong with this switch based upon my experience.

It works!

I bought this switch back in 2009, and checking underneath I see now that it was the v2 version. It has worked OK but within the past several months, it has a tendency to dramatically slow down. Using speedtest.net as a gauge, my connection, when bad, will drop from ~150Mbit/s to 2Mbit/s. Unplugging the switch, waiting for a minute and plugging it back in brings speeds back to normal. In light of this, Im not inclined to buy a Netgear switch next time around.

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 with an older netgear switch ,needed the newer technology and faster speeds ,made a huge difference in my line speed compared to the old switch i had that was ten years old...

I have two of these switches and both work as I expected a good price and great product I am not at all disappointed Its a great Product!!!!

Good!

Honestly my father owned the 5 switch version but it wasn’t enough so by getting the 8 you easily can have multiple connections and still keep your fast 1gb internet’s speed or even more without it hindering the performance at all!

My go to switch for my travel bags. Always work and not a bad price for a well built switch.

I upgraded from a 4 port to this 8 port switch gave me the expansion I needed without any loss of speed.
