Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wired Switch
This product performs as described. I have no complaints. I bought it to use multiple computers from my internet connection using wired connections. So far it's worked flawlessly.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent way to connect Ethernet devices, but plan for the future
I combined this switch with the Linksys Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming Adapter to extend my wireless network to wired devices located in a room other than the one that contains my router.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Works.
I bought this little switch because my home network has expended a bit recently.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - just the trick
I bought this switch jsut so i could have my Xbox and computer hooked up at the same time, and it has done wonderful. It was easy to hook up, just plug in and go. For just this simple application, this was an excellent purchase.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - d-link switch better
I've used both d-link and linksys switches.
They both fail after a time. The d-link
seems to be a faster switch. I keep thinking
Cisco would have would host the premier
product. Oh well
