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.

Works as advertised - Easy Installation

Set up was a breeze - no hiccups and no issues. Product worked as advertised. I am a novice in network configuration so the ease of this product was prefect.

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?

Does what it says

Most Linksys products I've purchased work as described and this is no exception. Out of the box and into the stack and I don't have to worry about it. If 100mbs is fast enough for your SOHO network, this package is hard to beat. About the port 8 thing: most small switches behave this way. You don't really lose a port but just remember uplink usually counts as one of the

Good value, reasonable quality

We received our switch super fast, thanks to this company's incredibly fast order fulfillment. The switch itself is a snap to install. One of the 8 ports appears to be dead on our unit, however, which is why I rated the quality only 3 stars.

Can't even tell it's on!

I love this item! I purchased it to replace a noisy old 24-port switch in the office of which only 5 ports were ever used. XP picked it right up, I plugged it in and voila! The switch is completely silent and sits about a foot away from me and what a HUGE space saver this thing is. If you're going to go with a switch, Cisco- Linksys is highly recommended. I may even buy one for home.
