5.0 out of 5 stars These work and look good too!, January 8, 2006

(...) I was skeptical when I ordered but after adding them to my home network I am very pleased with their pereformance.

I have two Windows machines, one Macintosh and miscelaneous ethernet devices connected to the network and haqe had no trouble at all.

The units are small and fit well into a home system. An added benefit is that these switches look good. A blue power LED along with the connection and status LEDs make for a cool setup.

Get these if you are looking to expand a home network. You won't be sorry!

This review is from: Uniden PCS500 Fast Ethernet Switch (5-port) (Personal Computers)

This switch works great with my desktop's 3Com 3C905TX ethernet card, but it won't communicate with the integrated Intel 10/100 ethernet port on my Toshiba Satellite notebook. I had to place a Linksys device between the two to get them to communicate.

I give it 2 stars for being pretty though.
