My plans were to hook this up to two computers and two Dish receivers and then leave to hook ups in other rooms for lap tops if needed. so far it has worked out great. My next step is to add video com. so my parents can see their grandaughter, I hope it will work. Wish me luck.

Device is a switch, not a router

Contrary to one of the other reviews, this is a switch, not a router. I have had mine for a while (longer then the warranty) and have had at least one port go bad. Others seem to continue to work. I have both 1GB and 10/100 devices connected.
Pros:
  • 1GB
Cons:
  • 1 port failed

Just installed this product, delighted! Everything sets up as it should, no problems (1 Caveat though - see below). Of course, Gigabit networking makes all those Multimedia file transfers sooooo much faster.

"Great little network switch,"

This switch has been a great addition to my network . It allows for fast transfer sppeds and i have been using for over 3 months now with no problems. Unluckily it is not wall mountable which would have been useful, but it comes with some legs which can be used to stand it on its side.
Pros:
  • Sleek
  • small
  • easy to use
Cons:
  • Not wall mountable

Works great

Works great, gives me much needed network ports. Fast. Small and shiny. Pretty compact for 8 ports. Numbered lights on front display different colors based on 100Mbit or Gigabit.

Nice, inexpensive gigabit switch

Compared to other inexpensive 5-port and 8-port gigabit ethernet switches out there, this one looks great, and has a small, light and energy-efficient switching-mode power supply (a nice touch). It is trivial to set up (it's an unmanaged switch... there's nothing to configure).
