Worked for the first few days no problem. Then my online gaming would start lagging and my Amazon fire would take some time to kick in. I plugged the cable directly into the PS4 and I was getting a download speed of 250/mbps. I would plug it into the switch, it would drop down to about 100/mbps.

Dead on arrival

Netgear tech support was useless. They tried to troubleshoot this unmanaged switch as if it was a router (asking what kind of modem it was plugged into, who my Internet service was through, what firmware was loaded on it) -- if you know the basics of networking then you'll understand how absurd...

Small; But it didn't work

The switch was dead right out of the box; Unfortunately for me, I bought it several months ago, anticipating to use it later (now); Should have tested it within the NewEgg return period, but I did not, so ineligible to return here; Now I'm paying $10 to ship a $12 switch back to Netgear for a swap.

Unmanaged switches are commodity items. They all function identically - that is to say, perfectly - they differentiate themselves in terms of price, warranty, mounting method and even aesthetics. This switch works perfectly. All ports send traffic at wire speed, gigabit. I verified this with iperf.

Works perfectly; Small; Light; Gigabit

Port lights don't indicate 10/100/1000 status; LEDs glow through top of case

Small and efficient

I bought this based on the good reviews and low price tag. I have been using it for a few months now 24x7. Very small, no need for setup (unmanaged anyway), relatively energy efficient. Nothing bad so far
