Review: Best for the price! - I picked up the NETGEAR 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet switch to go with my NETGEAR Orbi 370 Series, and it ended up being one of those “why didn’t I do this sooner” upgrades. The Orbi already delivers strong, reliable WiFi throughout the house, but adding the switch takes things up a notch—especially for anything that benefits from a wired connection. My TV, gaming console, and work setup all run smoother with zero hiccups. No buffering, no random drops, just steady performance. The switch itself is as simple as it gets. No setup, no headache—just plug everything in and it works instantly. It’s small, quiet, and does exactly what it’s supposed to without drawing attention to itself. Together with the Orbi system, it creates a really balanced setup: fast WiFi everywhere plus rock-solid wired connections where it matters. If you’re already using Orbi and have multiple devices, adding this switch is an easy win.
Review: Excellent Quality Unmanaged Switch - This is a very fast {1G, all ports} unmanaged switch. It seems of good quality as most of Netgear items are. One bit of information, after plugging every Ethernet wire in and then applying power, as the manual suggests, I was having stability issues that my Router's tech support solved which was to unplug every Ethernet wire and reinsert them 1 at a time, with power on, and the stability was fully restored. It's working flawlessly. It's worth the premium price for the performance it offers and the brand recognition.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple Plug-and-Play Ethernet Switch
*by D***Y on February 10, 2026*

This switch is very straightforward and easy to use. Just plug it into a power outlet, connect your Ethernet cables, and it works immediately with no setup required. It also has indicator lights for each port, which makes it easy to see that everything is connected and working properly. The build quality feels solid, and for the price, this is a great value. I couldn’t ask for anything more.
