NETGEAR 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Plus Switch (GS308E) - Desktop or Wall Mount, Home Network Hub, Office Ethernet Splitter, Silent Operation, Black

The price was the best I could find anywhere, well, anywhere that showed up on the Internet searches from 3 different search engines. Installation was very easy. All I had to do was plug the power cable into one of my UPS / Surge suppressors, plug the CAT5 patch cable into it from the Mesh System Router, plug the CAT5 cables in from my devices. I still have 4 ports. Room to grow. The only time I have to touch it is when I reset the network, or, to dust it off on cleaning day. The switch is all metal. When I held it in my hand it felt like a little tank.

This unit is doing exactly what I need it to do.

Ive been using TPLink brand 8 port switch, but when I added another switch in the home network, its speed went down to 100Mbps. After restart, Gbps speed stays a few minutes then goes back down to 100Mbps. I got this Netgear switch almost at the same price, but much better quality in and out. It stays Gbps speeds constantly. Five stars to Netgear. Good job...

Cumple con lo escrito en la descripción del producto. Buena calidad. Recomendable 100%

I raised the internet speed in my house up to 500 MBS, but all the wired items show no speed increase. Then I figured out that my ethernet switch managed up to 100 MBS only. I change my switch to the NETGEAR 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet and WUALAA, now Im happy.

Great price

I had an older 8-channel ethernet switch which seemed to have occasional dropouts. It was also running warm. This was truly plug and play. I did not have to anything other than plug it into an AC outlet then plug in the ethernet cables and it worked as it was supposed to.

I upgraded my LAN system from cat 5e to cat 6 cabling, this switch works just fine. Easy setup.
