This is a basic product, just plug in the power and plug in your Cat 5 network cables and off you go! Works straight away with no problems. Runs completely silently (no fans) not crashed yet and been running over a month non-stop now.

They won't honor their lifetime warranty. You can't make a claim via web/email, you have to call them, sit on eternal hold, and apparently be told your device is out of warranty. Even after repeatedly questioning about the lifetime warranty all they want to do is sell you an expensive phone support...

Netgear's new ProSafe Plus switches offer plug-and-play simplicity to small businesses, plus PoE expansion and handy traffic-management features. The GS105PE is the smallest of the family and provides five Gigabit ports.

I use this with a voip phone to manage the QoS direct from the modem and to manage my bandwidth to my routers. This little guy was super impressive.

has lots of stuff from big switches

none yet

If you need a GIG, you get a GIG and this is a very simple and efficient solution for those areas where you just can't afford to run another ethernet cable!

A monkey with poor eyesight can set this up

A more contemporary cabinet would be nice

Nice price, easy setup, good form factor, reliable performance.

Easy To Setup; Fast; Reliable; Small

This is the smallest (in terms of port numbers) Gigabit switch that Netgear make. The first thing that you notice about it when you open the box is that it has an extremely high build quality and has a good weight to it. This sort of thing is always reassuring.

This switch works exactly as expected! It was either get a new router, a hub, or a switch...opted for the switch because I liked that it dedicates ports to each attached unit and not share between them. Works like a charm..

This helped me hook up my steam link to my network. It seem to be preforming well and I don't see any potential problems with it in the future.

led's help tell you what speeds your lines are running on; Solid metal construction

price is a little steep when not on sale

An OK little box. Does what I need it to, provide extra signal at the end of 25-50 feet of ethernet cable in a home network situation, plus extra ethernet ports. Not amazing or life changing, but good.
