  Not sure if a bargain, or just kinda what it's worth for old tech. It's a no from me, but thanks anyway OP.

  Quick question from someone that knows nothing about networking. The 8 port version is this sufficient or ideal switch for connection 2 computer to internet for home use?

    If you're happy with only one of them receiving a tenth of it's possible network connection speed, go for it.

    I'd suggest spending the extra for one of these if four ports is enough.

      Fantastic. Thank you for suggestion.

      what's the difference of using a switch vs the 4 ports on the back of the modem?

        Really, you would only need a separate switch if you need a) more ports or 2) need\want more advanced capabilities like VLAN tagging and you get a managed switch like this.

          @douglasac10: If I need say 4 more extra ports and buy this item, i'd effectively have 7 correct? (3 from modem, and switch connects to last port to get 4 more more)

    would check if your internet device can take more than 1 Ethernet cables

  I got excited until I realised the lack of gigabit ports.

  •

    Only two Gigabit ports. Not for someone who needs multiple high-speed devices.

    Personally I just need the speed for home office and a server in the garage. My internet connection is below the 100Mbit anyway and I don't need more for TVs and game consoles.

    I just wanted something that looks neat rack-mounted.

      Fine if your only using for internet if you have a slow plan but if your transfering files/data over the home network still best to get gigabit.

  They are cheap considering they are managed + SFP capable, but very basic without any large number of Gigabit lan ports.

  I have 2 routers, one is running as an AP. Would I be able to use the Ethernet ports on it like an unmanaged switch or do I need an actual switch?

    Ports on your router will work the same. Just plug things into it and off you go, assuming you've turned off dhcp, DNS, firewall etc

  A managed switch seems like more trouble than it's worth for home use, and the lack of gigabit ports isn't great.

  vovka on 09/09/2020 - 19:47

  Or look for a used one on Gumtree. Shouldn't be more than $10.

  Here I was getting all excited until I realised the real lack of gig. Would have easily jumped on it despite being TP-Link.

  Yakuza85 on 09/09/2020 - 20:03

  Upvoted but then realised it’s not full gigabit. Not worth it now.

      There was free shipping before as the deal was on Harris Technology. Once they sold out it switched to another store without free Prime. You can see this on the $19.99 one.

  out of stock I think Harris Technology is not anymore there

  It says 2 gigabit ports, but the second one is sfp, does it need a $20 adapter to make it into rj45?
