Linksys by Cisco EtherFast 10/100 5-Port Workgroup Switch – Product Review
I decided to buy this switch because I’ve used a similar Linksys Ethernet switch for years and it has performed flawlessly all this time. I also use a Linksys WiFi router, and have been very satisfied with all of these products. The switch has worked flawlessly and immediately right out of the box. I daisy-chained this switch to another one and have not noticed any signal degradation or network slowdown. I use this switch to connect various media devices in my living room: HDTV, Blu-ray player and Windows Media Center PC. The video streaming on all of those devices has been very high quality and very smooth. The same hold for web surfing. The switch is also very small and compact, which comes in handy if you want to install it in a place where you already have to deal with cable and device clutter.
These have been my observations thus far. If I discover anything else about this switch in the upcoming days and months, I’ll update this review.
