I've gotten many for work here and there and never had one fail so far. But then again rarely ever see a network switch fail at all. Usually only ciscos that are failing

Yes, it multiples one ethernet to multiple. You can attach to a router to add more ports, yes. This will not block, alter, or shape traffic (no firewall).

I've had a TrendNet switch fail on me. I opened it up and found a bulging capacitor. Soldered in a new one it and it works fine now.

Needed this because when I replaced my router with the Google Nest Wifi router I didn't realize it only had one ethernet out port.

Set mine up today, does exactly what it says it does. Good deal.

trendnet is lifetime warranty as well. I had those back in the day but haven't had one recently. But like the other guy said, my cisco died from power spikes but these little guys I haven't had any fail yet

Yep you can do that. Run one cable from your router to a port on it. You can then plug in 4 more devices.

I went with Netgear but it really is a coin flip. I had a TP Link modem and router for a couple of years with no issues and recently switched to the Nighthawk mesh system which has been great as well.

I bought this a couple of months ago. I think this was a similar price to what I paid maybe $1 cheaper, but its not necessarily a deal. The TP-Link and Netgear are both great and haven't had one fail yet. Oh yeah, I just realized but I also bought the 12.99 netgear as well so yeah I can say both are good so far. I would say this is a lukewarm deal, but if you need one it's what I do. Whichever one breaks I'll change my reviews, but so far so good.

Will switches slow down speed since you're splitting the signal?

I bought this switch, but I had to return it because my throughput became 100mps after a period of time. Link still says 1Gbps. Had to reseat the plug to fix speeds.

Almost all the 5 port unmanaged switches seem to be around this same price. Some are even around $10.99. Is this really all that slick of a deal?

Assuming you mount it horizontally... no.

If you are worried about signal speed degradation then avoid mounting the switch vertically... the zeroes, being lighter because they are carrying no data, will tend to favor the higher ports, while the ones, which are heavier because of their data-laden nature, will just as certainly favor the lower ports. To ensure the integrity of the networking links established by your switch you will want to keep the ones and zeroes on equal footing and prevent any "buoyancy" degradation by ensuring all of your data ports are arranged horizontally.

[QUOTE=cdma2k;145535944]You're completely wrong about to link quality not good. I have owned several tp link products - travel router, Archer A7 router, 8 port switch, extender. All of these are still working well past their warranty expiration date with no issues
