NETGEAR5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Essentials Switch (GS305) - Home Network Hub, Office Ethernet Splitter, Plug-and-Play, Silent Operation, Desktop or Wall Mount

I actually have 2 of these. One is in my computer room and allows me to plug several computers into my ethernet line at the same time and without mucking around changing cords, etc. The other one is at the cable modem input and allows me to leave my wifi router off unless I need it for something. The latter I find to be a security measure, since the wifi router is not broadcasting and can't be compromised if it's off. When the wifi router is on, the output goes into the Netgear router and then into the cable modem - without me having to mess around changing plugs and wires. These units are plug and play - they simplified everything and increased my security at the same time. I really like that it's small and as far as my internet connection is concerned, I've seen no impact at all on speeds. I do wish that the power connector was in a different location (it's on the side opposite the ethernet connectors) but that's so trivial as to be unimportant. I recommend this product heartily!

Im in IT and I been using this for years and I have purchased so many I can't even count because you need them all over the offices of any given client and I can tell you, they last. keep up the good work Netgear and don't drop the quality like other brands that I know.

Frontier "upgraded" my router from one with four ethernet ports to a router with one. With this, all my devices are connected like before. I would like it better if all the ports and power jack were on the same side. It should not be called a switch though, it's a splitter.

This is a great product to set up a game room. I run cables to my PS5, PC, Switch 2, and the TV they're hocked to.

Wonderful addition to routers that don't have enough ports, the design feels very high quality and this is a bit on the larger side. A bit expensive for not a lot of ports but the design makes up for it if its in view. Works exactly as described and I have not noticed a decrease in speeds using this besides a slight one.

Used it for vcr , tv, Internet and satellite system. Everything works great.

It’s really good and easy to use while giving high quality work
