This is truly a plug and play switch. However, instead of calling it an 8-Port, I think it should be called a 7-Port as one of the ports has to be used for the incoming Ethernet so you actually have 7 ports available. But this switch has worked flawlessly on all 7 available ports.

If you're an avid reader of our reviews section (and you are, aren't you?), then you know we've been covering Cisco's recently announced E-Series of easy-to-use next-generation Wireless N routers and switches.

Slim and Unobtrusive; Plug-and-Play; Traffic Prioritization; Power Saving Features; Ports-a-Plenty!

Placement of Activity Lights; Price

No setup required, Just plug and play. This switch is my primary core switch that ties all of my networking together. This includes home surveillance, home automations, media servers, cloud server.

Easy To Set Up; Good price

What can I say, it's a Cisco. They know network kit. Simple, works, fast as anything, awesome buy

I haven't had any issues whatsoever with this switch. I get blazing fast Gb speeds, as expected, and haven't had to really do anything with it whatsoever since I installed it in my network. I did restart it once, but later found the problem was in the router.

Reasonable price; Nothing really to set up (just plug it in, basically); It works

I bought this for my home office where we use over 6 machines, and I really liked the product. Nothing can beat cisco quality and style. Looks similar to my wifi router. Very slim and light weighted.

Easy To Set Up; Fast Connection; Reliable Connection

This unit is ideal for SMB or home use. I realize that most home useres don't need an 8 port switch, but by the time I hooked up all my PC's, Access points (large house), and my NAS I was long since out of ports.

Effortless connections. Just plug it in and away you go. I use this in my home office connecting 4 computer systems and three different printers as well as running Netflix on an playstation 3 . Consistently performs faultlessly.

Has worked great for long time. Purchased to replace a re-purposed Linksys SE2500 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch, which worked great too.

I needed more ports than my cable modem has. This ethernet switch fit my need perfectly! The set-up only took a couple of minutes-basically plug it in to your modem, connect the devices and just like that you are in business! Very easy and hassle free set-up.
