This is great if you are doing any kind of multimedia transfers between local network computers (locally produced multimedia collaborations). The GS105 makes reading the hard drive on a neighboring computer just as fast as reading it from your own! It literally transfers data faster than the internal hard drive can read. So the GS105 is like the computers were sharing the same hard drives directly. :) OMG fast. If you want to see it on steroids, use a SSD for your local network file shares. It will send / receive without any delay because it has no spinup time, and also because it has 4x the data transfer rate even after the HDD spins up. There's just no contest. Using a combination of windows networking, GS105 and a pair of SSD's (one on each networked computer), I just moved a 1.5 Gb file from one PC to another in about 15 seconds... FOR EXAMPLE. To make this thing work optimally, make sure that BOTH LED LIGHTS come on, with each local area connection you want at high speed.... your networked devices's Ethernet interfaces will also each have to be gigabit compatible for that to work.Read full review

The Netgear five port unmanaged switch is a good value for the money. It's durable and will last many years. I have had the 8 port type and never had any trouble with it. The speed for the most part depends on the speed of a userrs network. Mine is between 100 to 200 MPS. Some users will no doubt wish for even more speeds. This little switch will handle. Remember this switch is unmanaged so the is no need to configure it for VPN or VLANS; it works right out of the box.

No nonsense, high quality switch, very compact with no upkeep. For best results, make sure your network has all the same model of switch. Easily supports listed gigabit speeds on all ports, no slow downs, no issues. Very solid product and typical one of the best to purchase used as they rarely have failures or issues.

Simple to set up- just connect then plug it in and you are done. Oh yes, you have to decide where to put it first. Easy and fast. If you’re on fibre you need a gigabit switch if you use one. Hard wired is faster than wireless eg 520 download speed wired vs 350 wireless. This switch is rugged and compact. Nice piece.

I have been using these Netgear GS105 and GS108 switches since they first came out about 12-15 years ago. Occaisionally a power supply will go bad and I have to go on Ebay and buy a replacement for about $5-$7. Sometimes they will freeze when there is too much activity on the network but it happens rarely. All you have to do to fix it, is to unplug the power supply for 30 seconds and plug it back in. I am still using some versions 1 and 2 GS108 switches on one my networks without problems as I said that I purchased 12 to 15 years ago. How is that for longevity?
