- Just plug and play in Windows 11 Pro. - I received 2 Card TX401, and both work like a charm. - Big upgrade on my local network, on a 10 G Switch. - Again, rock solid, good heat sink size, should be reliable for years... - It's Rj-45 , so no need to upgrade for fiber... for now. - Never had a problem with TP-Link to be honest.

10gbps (well maybe ~5gbps depending on the setup)

This switch can be used as is if all you need is to add some more ports to your network, and is also feature rich with many different control options. If you are really into tweaking out connected devices and need to have more control over devices that are connected to your network then this is the switch to purchase! Power cord plugs into the back of the unit, and all connections are made in the front. Also has an easy access reset button in the front to the right that is clearly labeled in the event that you have to reset the device due to a lost password, or to just start setup over from scratch. LED’s on each jack will give you connection status with just a glance along with a data flow indicator LED. DHCP is not enabled by default, and most people usually have this type of setup on their networks. Also the default IP address is setup for 192.168.0.1, so depending on your network setup, you will need to run the configuration utility right away to change the settings. The utility had no problem detecting the switch even though its address was different than what my home network is setup for. Once DHCP was enabled through the configuration utility the device was recognized with no problem on my network. Included instructions on how to connect to the device for setup the first time worked exactly as described. Device allows full control of all port settings. Such as speed and duplex, flow control, and lag. Also supports IGMP Snooping and Port Trunking. The Monitoring feature will give individual port statistics such as Status of connected ports; transmit/receive of good/bad packets. Also supports Port Mirroring and Loop Prevention. Each port can also be individually configured with optional MTU VLAN control settings, along with QoS, Bandwidth control and Storm control. Another nice feature is the Cable Test option which will allow you to test your cables and give you the length of each cable in meters. Built solid, all metal enclosure, wall mountable, also includes pads for bottom of unit if you prefer to have it sitting on your desk. Initial setup is easy by simply plugging a network cable directly from your router to the switch and you then have 7 more available ports for hard wired devices!

We got TMobile 5g Home Internet to save money without realizing that we would be unable to manage our router"gateway". So going with unmanaged switches was the obvious choice. Why Netgear? Build quality. There are lower priced options, but we have crazy pets and crazier owners living here so it was sturdy metal case for the win.

-Whisper quite -Many Features -Web GUI or phone app to manage it -You have to know what your doing or at least read the manual.

Silent and cool with plenty of room for power requirements with my PoE network cameras.

I really like this switch. It has all the great management features you would want, the GUI makes sense, VLANs work as expected, it has POE, and it's got a great slim form factor for wall mounting and getting it out of the way. Comes with the screws necessary to wall mount as well.

The MS305 (pay attention to the model number when purchasing) is a fine addition to a home network, especially with moving moderately large amounts of data between devices (pictures, streaming, archives) internally or via the Internet.
