Just plug it in and go! Great little switch, pretty blinking lights, connectors on the front for easy access, rectangular metal box that lies flat and can be stacked, and sustains gigabit rates (unlike the TrendNet Green that it replaced, that didn't reach 200 mb/s). They also run cool and use very little power (I measured 3.4W). If you already pulled cat-5e cabling through your house, you can pick up a couple of these used for next to nothing.

I've had 3 of these fail in 6 yrs. Originally installed by AT&T they just stop passing traffic. Just bought one off ebay and brand new it knocked off three computers and a printer. Replace with an alt brand, also plug and play and everything works fine. The 5 port ones don't seem to fail as much as i have3 of those with no problems ever.

What is there to say about this? It just works. By that I mean is there is no dancing around settings and router settings and troubleshooting to make this work like you would with a router, no bridging needed. It just simply works. I know some routers are easier to work with then others but this is simply plugging plugging in your Ethernet connectors and then it works. No garbage software, no need to flash your router for open source software just so it actually works, no dealing dealing with wifi and making sure one doesn't crash the other. No this one is actually plug and play.

This is a very high quality switch, typical of Netgear, and works fine. Just be aware that the CAT6 connectors and the lights indicating connection status are on the same side of the box, so if you want to see what's connected at what speed, you'll also have to look at and deal with all the cables going into the thing. Turning the business side away from you gives you a lovely view of the power connection plug and cable, and security lock hole in the back. I knew all this going in, and so gave it five stars for performance. But in a home environment, the thing is just unattractive sitting on a desk no matter how you turn it. Netgear's less expensive plastic home-style routers, with only status lights in the front and all connections in the back may serve you better in a home office environment.Read full review

The Netgear Prosafe GS108PE Prosafe 8 port Gigabit Ethernet Switch was purchased to replace a Netgear FS108 10/100 - 8 port Ethernet Switch that was up-linked to a GS105 Prosafe 5 port Ethernet Switch. As you can imagine, this setup was causing traffic issues. This switch allowed for me to cleanup the wiring and speedup my connections without using an up-link, and with enhanced security and speed I needed. I would recommend this product,
