    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!

    No frills, it just works. What more do you need from an Ethernet hub? As a bonus, its a nice looking little gizmo.

    First thing: Its a switch so there is no effort to set one up. Step one open box, step two plug in Ethernet cables, step three plug in power. Boom you are done. This is perhaps the easiest setup for PC beginners. This device seems sturdy enough in the first few months and its small enough to mount or slide under the TV.

    This is a simple plug and play type unit. Love that there is no programming. But, the directions have it wrong when it comes to attaching it to a WIFI unit....connect the Ethernet input to the Negear FIRST, attach all your direct access devices to it and run separate line to the WIFI unit...otherwise, the WIFI will cause the frame rate to degrade if several WIFI devices accessing it...if you have a direct computer connection, make sure you have a good firewall and virus protection...programmable WIFI only add extra layer of protection...

    Runs cool, no dropped connections. Im using this at a small workbench with multiple towers connected 24/7, and I frequently hook machines I am servicing to the open ports throughout the day.I have yet to have a machine not be detected, unlike my experience with an older 5 port version of this same switch.

Gigabit Ethernet switches connect multiple devices, delivering speeds up to 10x faster than Fast Ethernet
