Pros

Tp-link tl-sg105 is perfect for someone who needs multiple internet ports, but isn't super technologically savvy. Used this to change a pc on my network from a wifi connection to ethernet. Although i have a computer within 30 ft of the wifi router, th...  Read More

The compact size makes it easy to tuck away discreetly. Its unmanaged design makes it an ideal choice for tech novices and seasoned professionals alike. Another aspect i appreciate is the switch's durability and reliability.

Highlights

Quality


They are rock solid after 4 years, metal case helps cooling


It works phenomenally, and has a built in loop detection light that informs you of any faults in the system.


After 2 fried netg*%r switches (one lasted a full year), the tp-link has not failed.


It makes no noise, uses very little energy, and outputs very little heat.

Price


Refunded only partially for some reason but i was too busy for a $15 argument now too late.


For the price, you can't go wrong.

Shipping


Everything i've purchased from amazon was on time, worked as expected and seller was great!

Packaging/appearance


It was literally, take it out of the box, plug in my various cables, and bingo.

Competitiveness


This switch is the best solution, and the tp-link is best in price and durability.


Tp-link is the leading brand and well worth the price.


It’s plug and play so nothing to set up , feels like it’s made of high quality materials, price was better than most other branded switches


This switch seems to play much much better with pcs and windows 11.
