Linksys produces some excellent switches! Just plug them in and off they go working without a hitch! Very durable, very reliable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent way to connect Ethernet devices, but plan for the future, January 16, 2009

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. This switch gives me extra ports to connect my Slingbox, Ooma, Blu-Ray player, and television to my home network/internet. Since the device is so simple, there's very little that can go wrong with it.

Potential buyers should consider how many devices they want to connect, and then add one or two ports for future devices. Six months ago, I never would have expected to need one Ethernet port, let alone four, in my family room; with changes in technology, you may need to upgrade to a larger workgroup switch sooner than you expect. If you are only worried about Blu-Ray and one or two game consoles, then this switch should be adequate both now and in the near future.

Products that can be connected to this switch:
ooma Core VoIP Phone System with No Monthly Phone Service Bills
Sling Media Slingbox PRO-HD SB300-100
PlayStation 3 80GB
Samsung BD-P1500 1080p Blu-ray Player


And many more.

This is a very valuable addition to my electronic arsenal. I work for a self storage company and must work at our various properties for extended periods. I use my Linksys 5-Prot Switch to be able to connect my Airport express to the DSL modems at the properties. This allows me to create a wireless environment while working there. Creating the wireless environment enhances my productivity allowing me to use two computers simultaneously. I recommend this product whether you are a stay at home user or on the road.
