Customer Reviews
Works well.
works flawlessly. It's an add on to a router or gateway that adds, in this case, 8 connections to other an ethernet based router or gateway.
The switch works as advertised. It absolutely captures Gigabit vs Megabit connections. (Which is why I got it :) ) . It works flawlessly with Cat5 and 6 respectively. Easy install and as an unmanaged switch, has a low power draw and profile. Great product.
I recently had to reinstall Windows on my PC and was redownloading some games to the local drive and it was taking forever. I checked my network connection and the speed was down to 10Mbps. I checked my cables and they were Cat 5e, and I was connected to a Linksys SE2800 8-Port Gigabit Switch. I tried multiple things, but it was going to take days to download all the games. 1 game was saying 8hrs to download. I decided to just replace the switch with this one and ordered it from Amazon and 4pm. It was delivered the same day , I installed it and the speed jumped to 1Gbps. Based on this I restarted the downloads and the download speed went from a max of 10Mbps to a high of 700 Mbps. Needless to say I was able to download all the games in a couple of hours. It was well worth the $40 to save myself a ton of time downloading files. I was also starting to see issues while watching Netflix on my TV, and these issues have gone away. Note: resetting the switch did not speed up the system.
The switch works great. I get my full internet speed without any issues. (This is with multiple devices connected to the switch.) I am able to do file transfers from my workstation to my Ubuntu server running a samba share at full gigabit speed with no issues. I bought this as an extension to my network since my 10 gigabit switch had all its ports filled and connected this to devices that don't need anywhere near a 10 gig link to my servers. Up time is great I haven't had to reboot it since it was installed 4 months ago. While I wish it had a management console like my Cisco gear this is a home grade switch and at this price point It makes sense that its plug and play and that's it. (This means vlans and other switching features on the switch are out of the question.)It's also metal and feels pretty well built.
