Arrived quickly and is perfect for my needs. Plus is the management piece. Great pricing and value

Excellent product, super easy to use and deploy. I'd buy it again.

So far this ethernet switch has been working pretty well. Initially I had some issues getting one of the ports to send the signal out to my computer, which required me to unplug and replug the device, but this problem seems to have gone away and it works like a charm now. I felt like the instructions could have been a little more helpful, but a quick internet search helped me find what I was missing. I think you just plug the incoming ethernet cable into port 8, and ports 1-7 are for outgoing cables. Great product for a simple home network setup, and now each room in my house has ethernet!

Worked great to fix a network problem I had with an old, plastic bodied TP-Link gigabit ethernet switch where upstream speeds were slow on some ports and had lots of packet loss. Turns out that old switch's power supply had gone bad and caused the packet loss problem; slow upstream speeds are still evident on some ports though. Hopefully this new, metal bodied switch will last at least as long as that old one did, and at first sign of trouble I'll check the power supply and hopefully it won't have fried some ports.

Have had this installed now for about 2 months. Bought to replace a netgear switch that stopped working after 3 years. Easy to install it was a direct replacement and home network is running smoothly.

My latest router from my cable company only has 4 Ethernet ports, and I needed about 4 more so I purchased this 8 port switch to accommodate my needs. Well it took about 3 minutes to hook it all up and to be back in service and have a couple extra ports for future expansion. Very satisfied and my speeds are great!!

I'm into cybersecurity and best practices (laugh), so, I like the ability to switch off unused ports, and custom configure even a small network. It is a set-and-forget device for most applications.In my setup, a cable modem feeds into a Mesh Network. This device empowers my three home office systems to have hard-wired connectivity, which basically means full utilization of the available bandwidth. The Mesh Network works great for my laptops and smartphones, but the bandwidth isn't quite the same as most wireless networks.I've never used TP-Link products before, and so far, I'm impressed with the quality, functionality and price/value for my temporary 'basement' home office setup (chuckle).

El swtich funciona muy bien y es fácil de instalar: sólo se conecta a la luz, en una entrada se coloca un cable Ethernet que ya esté enchufado en el router, y en las otras los aparatos a los que se desea que estén conectados al router, y listo! La velocidad de internet no baja en mi caso, y el cuerpo de metal hace que el switch no se caliente. Recomendado!

I decided to change my wireless home camera set up to wired. Well, my router only has 4x 1Gbps LAN ports and I have my PC + 5 cameras at the moment.I wanted to just turn Wi-Fi off. I mean, Wi-Fi cams are so easy to hack. I've hacked my own and got my credentials + password.So, after having more and more neighbors move in nearby (ughhh), and knowing that I could see everything about their wireless networks, (I am a computer tech guy, I'm not naming software, but I can see who has Ring door bells, smart appliances, cameras and which routers they go to and which extenders are on that LAN).I didn't want anyone seeing me. So, wired, here I come.I have an 8 foot ( I think ) Cat8 (don't ask haha, family member had one) Ethernet cable going from my PC to router. That's port 1. Then I have port 2 going from my router to the TP-Link TL-SG108 8 Port Gigabit Switch. I bought it over the 5 port because... why not? The price was there to just go for the 8 port imo. Plus, I'm gonna fill it up eventually. Then I have the other two 1Gbps ports on my router going out to a camera.Then I have 3x cameras connected to the TL-SG108 Switch. So, so far, 4x connections. 1 from the router, 3x from cameras.Ping to cameras are still My motherboard has 2.5Gbps Ethernet, so I would have liked to have went with a 2.5Gbps switch, but then I'd also need a 2.5Gbps Ethernet router... so yeah..1Gbps it is. Plus, it was way cheaper, anyways. I can't believe how cheap it is. It feels SOLID. Heavy for its size. That is ALWAYS a positive sign in the electronics world. Light electronics are cheaply made. This is not cheap. It doesn't even get warm to the touch.I'm excited and looking for more cameras to add to it haha.Oh, and yes, it's literally plug and play. It's as if all you're doing is adding more ports to your router. There is no other set up involved. To see the devices connected to the switch, you go to your router's admin page as normal.Zero set up other than plugging in the power adapter into it and then the wall. Then just plug your ethernet cable from your router to it. Now... any ethernet devices plugged into the switch will show up on your router and, as such, your home network. I'd buy more. I WANT 2.5Gbps so I'm ready to a 2.5Gbps router, but really, I'll probably have 10Gbps Ethernet on my motherboard by then.Ya can't keep up with the latest and greatest. Besides, my cameras don't come close at all to touching 1Gbps. I use H.264 encoding and they're older. For fun, I used "jpeg" encoding to hit 70Mbps, but it handled it fine. So I went back to H.264 and only run at 15Mbps combined speed.Update: I've now added another Ethernet cable to this TL-SG108 and plugged it into my Samsung SmartTV. Again, zero issues. It's handling everything I throw at it.110% satisfied with this purchase. If I'm not careful, I'm gonna fill up all 8 ports and have to buy another one haha. Good thing my router is also powerful enough to handle all this (DIR-878). It's nothing special, but it, too, is part of the equation in handling so much data coming through the Ethernet cable that's going to the TL-SG108.I'll stop here... because I'm pretty much saying "I love it" over and over. DEFINITELY recommend it or whichever model you need with the amount of ports you need. I'd recommend future-proofing and going with the 8-port over the 5 port since you will be down 1 port from the get go since you have to plug your router into it. The price is not much more and you don't want to regret not getting the 8 port over the 5 port.BUT that depends on your needs. You may need a 5 port on one side of your house and another 5 port on the other end, I dunno. That's why I went with the 8 port... and then got some 35ft and 50ft Cat7 cables from Amazon Basics.LOVE IT!
