Good value for your $$

This item is a snap to set up. Plugged it into my network and I was able to see all of my devices. I like that it has Gigabit capability. It is a lot faster than the 10MB switch this replaced!
Pros:
  • Very simple setup
Cons:
  • Nothing yet

Works as it should

What can I say, It's a gigabit switch and it works, plug in all the cables and away you go. Transfer speeds are pretty good. great for streaming as my old 100mb/s couldn't hack it as video was always stopping for some reason... great buy and quick delivery from amazon as usual

Easy to use, flawless execution

I really don't get the low ratings this is receiving...I use this in my living room to feed my PS3, a DVR and then to another switch to feed two DVR's and a computer. I just plugged in the wires, powered it up and everything was online and fast.
