Product reviewsNETGEAR 5 Port Gigabit Switch

Expand your network!

A simple but effective way of being able to expand your home network at a realistic price. At a gigabit, it is fast enough to maintain and cope with most home internet speeds. Simple to use just plug and play. However, you must have your own Cat5 RJ45 patch leads as none are provided. Just patch a lead from one port of the switch directly into your router/modem and the other 4 ports are ready to use for any device you wish to add and to hard wire to your network. It is a simple, basic Ethernet switch that works at a fair price.Read full review...

Small and efficient

Very easy to use, plug and play. It's a lot smaller than you think.

I plugged a single network cable in from my router then the cables to the other systems and it worked a treat. It seems to identify which cable is providing the network as there isn't a dedicated network port for the source network.

Overall very pleasedRead full review...

Simple to install Netgear Ethernet Switch

Great piece of kit. Just plug in and works a treat. No software installation etc. Been great for connecting the tv and digital tv box via wired internet connection rather than wifi.

Works straight out of the box

I bought this to replace an old 5 port Netgear switch (100Megabit) which had a couple of faulty ports. The new switch went into place worked immediately and at a Gigabit as well - bonus!

A neat little box

I am reasonably familiar with Netgear products. They seem to get smaller and lighter every time. This is a great little switch and hub and allows me to connect my older machines as well as the newest to my 1000Mbps main router. It works exactly as expected. The only niggle I experienced is that this model is intended as "desktop" only and, being so small and light, will not stay put. I managed to make it wall mountable without much difficulty, so am now totally and completely pleased with it in every respect.Read full review...

Small footprint, unobtrusive

Small footprint, so unobtrusive and has given me the extra ports I needed as my Sky Q modem only had 2 ports.
