Very easy, plug and play installation. I needed to add an additional wired network connection to an  adjacent room for a gaming computer. Running a new ethernet cable would require me to climb up into my attic and fish wires through the walls. Installing the Netgear switch allowed me to run a short ethernet cable through the wall without climbing into my attic. 
I decided to add ethernet jacks for two smart tv's in the same rooms.

Easy way to expand your wired network.

netgear.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quick and easy setup. Excellent way to expand your network. Always keep one of these on hand.

Must-Have  Product

walmart.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Product comes on time and work properly.

Good quality

I recently ran cat5e to my second floor home office (via basement to attic).  Two separate Ethernet branches was the most practical limit. Expanding my connectivity to include 2 laser printers and a netbook onto the office network was practical and very economical using the Netgear gigabit switch.  It works great and has all the features I need to give me instant visual status of network connectivity and traffic activity.

Easy way to expand broadband connectivity

If you are like me and you prefer things hard wired instead of using Wifi this is for you.  No Bandwidth bleed like using a router for a splitter.

Great product

Yes, I still have two. I gave the consumer model to a family member. This switch (GS 308x) is fast, works on my 12vdc distro panel adapter. LOVE the quality, the warranty period, this won't be my last unit.

My 3rd Netgear

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy install.

I was hoping by purchasing this update version of a switch I already owned it would solve my problem, but it didn't. I have an internet system that uses 5G on the wireless side, and only 2.4Ghz on the wired connected ethernet cable side, after replacing the switch and even updating the ethernet cable, it didn't do what I had hoped. I hoped it would step up the 2.hGhz to the 5G, there is no success. This switch maybe exactly what you are looking for, it's easy to install. While says it support 5G, it doesn't step up the Ethernet cable plugged into the switch and router to 5G. Disappointing, but that's life.

NETGEAR Switch GS305v3 it disappoints!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cheaper at Staples and even more cheap at Amazon. 
Switch is better than build than some competitors (trendnet) and on par with TPlink.  Speed and Performance is average.

This switch works great, initially. You can plug one end of your RJ45 cable from your modem to any available port. Old versions have a specific port that your LAN connects to. 

However, the benefits are s short-lived. There are many reports (now) of the same issue where it maxxes out at less than 100 Mbps, not 1000 Mbps (Gigabits) as advertised. 

Support is quite frustrating to deal with and they require you to pay shipping to them when you do an RMA. It's simply not worth to ship especially given how this seems to be a common problem. Most people don't notice speed differences but myself and my devices noticed immediately when this ethernet "switch" stopped performing to spec.

All this leaves me very disappointed. I had not expected performance issues what appeared to be a rock solid device. FWIW, my switch has 5 ports.

Slow after a few months of light use
