good product
This thing is small so you can put it almost any where you would like.
It works good I have my ps3 and computer hooked up to it and it has no lag when running both at the same time. Rating:

Still the best cheap desktop switches
Netgear's line of metal switches and hubs has always been an affordable, dependable product. I am glad to see that they haven't abandoned this format in favor of the plastic so many other companies are using.
I bought a couple of these for work when a group decided they needed to cram three conference rooms full of people on short notice. Netgear was the only product I trusted to work, and they didn't let me down.
At this point, you might want to consider the GS105. Even if you don't need the gigabit speed currently, you might in the future. Rating:

As Expected - Great!
Worked great right out of the box. This is the kind of quality that I expect from Netgear. Now if they can figure out a way to eleminate the "wall wart". Rating:

great home network extender
I purchased two of these switches to extend my home network; I needed two switches to accommodate upstairs/downstairs locations in home. They provide additional ports on a Netgear FVS114 ProSafe VPN firewall with built-in 4 port switch. I also have two wireless networks connected to the wired network; one supports video from a surveillence camera.
Installation was a breeze with nothing to configure; I wall-mounted one switch and 'installed' the second on the floor next to the outlet jack at my upstairs location.
These switches provide many network configuration options and I've used Netgear products for years with no problems. I expect the same will be true with these switches.
