Big in a small size
As an entry level switch with Basic VLAN, port mirroring and small size it is all what you need in your tool box to use for diagnosis network issues in office environments

Works well but as expected for a Netgear product
Device works wonderfully. Just wish I didn't have to wait 3 days to get it rather than be able to pick up in the store.

Works well - missing ARP table
While the switch works well, it would be nice if the management portal had the ability to display the MAC addresses (ARP table) of the devices connected to each port. To truly function as a switch, that table must exist internally, why not display it?

Wonderful switch.
I have a mini crypto mining setup and this has been absolutely fantastic. I will definitely continue to use Netgear as my switch choice.

Works as Intended
I bought this as I needed another ethernet access point for the new AV receiver I purchased. Set up was easy and working as intended.

Wireless perfectly
This works perfectly. It is NOT plug and play. There is a little bit of set up involved. Super easy though. Once it's set up, you will experience faster speeds and better coverage throughout the whole house. Plus, you can set up a guest wifi and password so they do not have access to your main account.

Best port for the money!
Plug-in to your Ethernet and it’s ready to go. I used this to split one Ethernet cord into 3 (a security camera system, a computer, and printer) with everything running I still get 900 mbps on my 1G internet l. Awesome!!

Nailed it
Although a switch at home is in most cases not necessarily needed and this was exactly what I needed to have a much better Qos for different items in hous

NETGEAR 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Plus Switch
This switch had just enough ports available to me, and is very fast transmitting data. I don't notice any slowing at all. I really am glad I got this... it is working with a security camera system and 2 computers. Thank you!

Works like a Charm
So far it was just an easy plug and play to have multiple iMacs plugged in. Haven't had any issues and very happy!

Excellent managed device, helps debug issues
Excellent little device, the management console is helpful to debug connections from vintage computing devices which can't always negotiate connections with modern switches. With this switch I can set the port down to 100Mbps or 10Mbps and it really helps.
