Pretty good little switch
Been using this switch with my DSL modem to feed to my family's main desktop, my 2 wireless routers, and a cable to my bedroom that links to another one of these for my desktop, laptop, and xbox 360. Only downside is that if there are more than 2 devices connected, it has an annoying high-pitched squeal, which annoys me at night. Other than that, its a pretty good switch and i highly recommend it.

Wired it up, plugged it in & it works.
I have two of these switches in a little LAN. I took them out of the box, plugged the Ethernet cables in, plugged in the power adapter, and they work. One's been running for many months; the other for a few weeks. No problems. And they were cheap. What else can I say about a couple of switches?
