Review: Plug and play for my home network - An excellent mid range Ethernet switch. Works extremely well and has no issues managing my home network without any loss of signal. I’m by no means a computer or network wizard so can’t go through all the packet and data loss malarkey but I can honestly say, having just branched out and set up a home network, I simply plugged this in, connected the router and a few devices to the switch along with all the patch cables going to sockets and it worked perfectly. Very simple to set up, comes with screws and raul plugs for wall mounting or can be desktop set if required. More than happy with the product and the price is very reasonable in my opinion. Review: Great hub - recommended! - Easy set up works great and at a great price.

Does the switch work with batteries ("not supplied" says the description) and if so how many and what type?** A: No, the GS305 doesn't work with batteries. It is delivered with a power adapter suitable to the region it is sold in. If you have any questions, you can also check out our community NETGEAR Best regards, NETGEAR Amazon UK **Q: Does the router have to be plugged into this. I have sn 8 port already but want to branch more cables off from upstairs.** A: Thank you for your interest in the NETGEAR GS305. If a connection to internet is required, some sort of routing will be needed to connect the internal and external networks together (as well as to provide NAT, etc.). If only additional devices with static IP addresses are to be connected, the switch alone would be sufficient. You can also visit our NETGEAR Community, if you should have any additional questions. Our forum might also helpful for gathering more ideas regarding the intended setup. Best regards, NETGEAR Amazon UK **Q: Hi, can u Plug this into a wifi booster?** A: yeap just use ethernet cable from booster to the hub job done then connect whatever devices you want to the available ports **Q: Would this work okay in a cold location, I want to put it in the loft for cctv (I have power installed already up there)** A: The operating temperature of the NETGEAR switch GS305 is between 0° and 50°C.

Would recommend for home networking ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality, reliable switch *by D***T on 1 March 2026* I'm very happy with my unmanaged NETGEAR 8-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch in black. I was swaying between this and the equivalent TP Link one. The NETGEAR is very well built, reliable, silent, runs the ports at 1 Gigabit (or more) per second, and has power saving features for idle ports. Highly recommended, and I would buy it again. ## Frequently Bought Together - NETGEAR GS305, 5 Port Gigabit Ethernet Network Switch, Ethernet Splitter, Hub, Desktop, Sturdy Metal, Fanless, Plug and Play - Amazon Basics RJ45 Cat-6 Ethernet Patch Cable, 1Gpbs Transfer Speed, Gold-Plated Connectors, 50 Foot for PC, TV, Tablet, Router, Printer, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/122475185-netgear-5-port-gigabit-network-switch-gs305-unmanaged-ethernet-switch](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/122475185-netgear-5-port-gigabit-network-switch-gs305-unmanaged-ethernet-switch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-18*
