No problems, plug and play, like a power adaptor. Needs a power socket to run it, though.
Well packaged and looks well made too. Works exactly as expected. Happy with my purchase.
Had this for ages now and hasn’t let me down once. Gigabit speeds are rapid
Used this for multiple device contained within the TV unit. Note for the unwise this needs powe
Setting up the LS1005G was a breeze; all I had to do was plug in the power and connect the devices. No complicated configurations or technical knowledge required. The switch’s compact design also allows it to fit easily into my existing setup without taking up much space.
Since installing the TP-Link LS1005G, my network performance has been flawless. The transfer speeds are fantastic, and I’ve experienced no lag or interruptions while using the connected devices simultaneously. It’s truly a testament to the switch’s efficiency.
Additionally, the build quality is excellent, and the switch feels sturdy and durable. I appreciate the LED indicators for each port, as they help me quickly identify the connected devices at a glance.
In conclusion, the TP-Link LS1005G 5-Port switch exceeded my expectations in every aspect. It has provided a simple and reliable solution for expanding my network and seamlessly connecting multiple devices in my living room. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a dependable Ethernet switch. 5 stars well deserved!
Not much to say about this one you plug it in add your lan cables and bobs your uncle it just works.
Sky helpline actually recommended this item as compatible with my new Eero, Fibre internet system, and it’s worked perfectly for me. It’s also reasonably priced which suits the Paisley man in me.
It means I have my landline phone, Sky System, Eero Router and Smart TV all working perfectly, thank goodness my son is a bit of a wiz with computers, it would have taken me ages to get it all working.
It’s not that it’s difficult, I’m just slow with all this modern tech stuff, being an old git and all. :-)))
Used loads of these for cctv network projects. Great value basic 10/100 switch. Very small form factor.
Best think I bought in the last couple of weeks. I was always swapping the cable between tv and ps. Now, never again! 😀 perfect speed, plug in and go
This item was used to add additional hard wired data outlets in a property. It was good value for money, small and compact, and easy to use.
Bought to replace my mum’s old switch that had several port failures. Lightweight, easy enough to mount, just plug it in, connect it up and turn it on. Plasticky but mounted in a cupboard out of sight so can’t really be seen and unlikely to get damaged.
There are times when only a wired connection will do. I wanted to have a solid connection from my main PC to my NAS, but also direct link to the Mesh wifi. This was a simple plug and play solution and it works
Bought to connect router and various devices which require wired connections.
Easy to set up – just plug and play. Just remember you will likely need an additional cable to connect the router back to the modem once it and the various devices have been plugged into the switch.
It takes one input (in any one of 5 ports) from my EERO box, and gives me the other 4 to plug in Ethernet connections to my wired PCs. I replaced the Ethernet connectors that came with the EERO box with Cat 8 cables. That gave me a modest speed increase, but, even with the original cables, it was running pretty efficiently and fast. Smaller than I expected it to be, but it does “exactly what it says on the tin”, and at a great price. Brillband, my new ISP, recommended this one for a small home network, and I’m glad I accepted their recommendation – particularly since it was on sale at a discounted price (8.99).
Great bit of kit.
Ran cat 8 cable from our router to the upstairs spare room. From here, used this little device to split a gigabit connection to my sons PC and my PC. Speed tests show both PCs getting the expected speeds.
When both are downloading simultaneously it doesn’t do a great job of splitting the bandwidth evenly. One will download very fast whilst the other one slowly. This is rarely a problem though.
Arrived and plugged in all my network cables and worked.
Not sure on the durability of this as it is made from lightweight plastic and only one led indicator for each socket. So there is no indication if the plugged in cable is working at 10 100 or 1000 mbits… just a note for those that need quick visualisation confirmation of the speed.
Small plug and cable (dedicated plug ) so could be an issue if the plug/psu fails.
All in all I am happy with the purchase.
Pros
* Total Value for money
* No configuration Needed
* Light Weight
* Very Compact
Cons
* Not suitable for desktop locating
* LEDs Do Not indicate Speed
* Dedicated PSU plug
As a cheap alternative this switch is very good.. It is also a branded name so some re-assurance there for product support and reliability?
I would purchase this again as an basic Switch as it does the job.
I needed an additional switch for a short term network redesign before a full redesign later this year with a larger switch and patch panel so bought the cheapest gigabit switch on Amazon. 7.99 at the time.
I see complaints about this switch in other reviews so lets start with the negative to get it out of the way.
Negative
– the switch feels cheap and plasticy. Feels like something from a Christmas cracker.
– Status lights don’t blink on activity, only static on connection. This may be a positive if the switch is not hidden but mine are hidden and I prefer status blinking for diagnosis
That is it for the negatives. Nothing deal breaking there for most people
Positives
– very small and compact
– runs cold so no worries with heat
– full gigabit ports – anyone saying speed issues should check their cables or QoS settings on their router. cat6a gives me no issues.
– takes heavy throughput easily – I have a gaming / streaming PC, nas and server running several vm’s connected to this which get simultaneously accessed by multiple devices on the network with no issues
Performance is exactly the same as the netgear pro safe switches which I usually buy and have served me well for years
Switch is wired back to router so no issues. If you wire back to another switch before the router, you may see performance drop
Overall very pleased with it and works perfectly until I swap this and my netgear switch for a managed enterpise switch later this year
My other advice for home users is don’t use the rubbish (usually yellow) Ethernet cable your internet provider gives you. Invest in some cat 6 or cat 6a. it makes a difference
