Purchased this switch to expand home network to entertainment equipment. One wired cat 5E cable now provides connectivity to Direct TV receiver, Blu-Ray player and Wii system. This was much easier than pulling additional wired.
I use this small switch to share the single Ethernet port on my living room to all TV stand devices. I left it always on for the last 6 months and it never gave any problem or had to be reset. Highly recommended.With the rebate, it turns to be one of the cheapest small switch available, but still it looks great quality.
Netgear is Essential Gear for networking.Netgear FS105NA Switch 5Port Metal works just like it's suppose to. You don't notice that it is there because it works flawlessly behind the scene.Would recommend to a friend.
Easy to install, worked fine - as advertised. Price for functionality was well worth it
This network switch works fine. What more can you say.Some of the reasons I selected this unit include the metal housing (which makes the unit a little heavier and less likely to slip around) and the co-location of the status LEDs with the jacks.Be sure to check the dates on other reviews as some of them are just plain wrong. For example, this most recent version/model does NOT have an "Uplink" selector switch.the ports configure automatically if you need to uplink to another switch or router. Also, the power connector is NOT a right-angle connector on this unit.One last note.this unit uses a 7.5 VDC power supply, so it will not work with all those older 12 VDC Netgear power supplies you have lying around.
