D-Link Ethernet Switch, 5-Port Gigabit Plug n Play Compact Design Fanless Desktop Switch (DGS-1005G),Black

I play online games with a group of friends every Friday night, and when using this switch I was constantly dropping off party chat for several seconds before reconnecting. This was irritating because A) I couldn’t communicate effectively and B) Because everyone else in the chat was constantly getting pop-up massages saying that I was unable to chat because of a network issue. It took me a couple months before I suspected it was the switch, but as soon as I disconnected my PS5 from the switch and used WiFi instead the problem never happened again. But I do prefer a wired connection, so I’ll probably ditch this one and try another brand.

I added another client to my network which needed to be wired. Unfortunately, I had no more room on my router so I decided to purchase this switch to expand my available ethernet ports. Overall, Ive been happy with no issues. Everything is working perfectly as it should. It does have a curved top which could be a con for some, but I personally like the design. I have it connected to my D-Link DIR-655 and its been one of the best setups Ive ever had. Skip the 5 port switch and jump strait to the 8 port, you wont be disappointed.

Really happy works better than I expected

Great price and good quality. We use these at work so I knew what I was getting, works great on my network. Easy setup.

It does its job well, its just a basic network switch so really theres not too much to go on about. I have no complaints.

does the job

Working great for the last 6 months. Have a NAS, WDTV, Denon AVR, PS3, Wii and HDTV all connected with a hard wire connection to another floor to the AccessPoint. It handles all the traffic without pause.

I just needed a switch to expand my LAN, thankfully I found this product to do the work for very cheap. If you just needed a wired switch with no fuzzy fancy features, just plug in and it works wonderfully.

Upgraded from an older unit and couldnt be more pleased. Coupled with a new gigabit router, this switch really lets the network zing along without having to power cycle/reset it every few days because its confused.

works great.. no complaints.. I have 3 of these.
