Works Great!
Picked up this switch in to add to my Nighthawk AX1800 for more hardwire options. Set up was plug and play and speeds have remained consistent and solid.

Very good and efficient switch
Very good and efficient switch. Small an convenient. Worked without any special set up. Right out of the box. I connected all 8 of my wired devices and all get great internet connection. I have gigabit service and this switch is a gigabit switch and helps to get all my wired devices online.
