Digital camera Review: D-Link DGS-2205 Router
Summary: 5 Stars
Great product, very, very user-friendly! Just plug in the cables and the router does the rest! I highly recommend this router if you need to route the signal to just a few components (it has 5 ports, but one is for the input signal). Even with all four ports in use, the signal is still super-fast and reliable.Digital camera Review: D-Link DGS-2205 brief review
Summary: 5 Stars
This switch is a total gem. I have never used D-Link switches before, but I saw this one on Amazon for a decent price and decided to give it a go. It is truly the easiest thing I've installed into my home network. I originally bought it for my computer room to allow 5 more PC's to connect to my router, but the router's ports ended up frying after a lightning strike. I am now using the switch to connect all of the computers in the house (through one port on the router that goes to the Switch's uplink) and am using a dumb hub in the computer room. I have seen no drop in performance (since everything is gigabit) for daily internet usage or gaming. I have about 9 - 12 devices connected to my network at any given time and I have not encountered any problems. My network consists of PCs (Windows and Linux based), an Xbox 360 (wired) and a Nintendo Wii (wireless), with a few wireless laptops. My router has let me down a bit, but that switch is a breath of fresh air.
The unit itself is small, quiet, and cool, even stacked on top of my router. It has display lights for connected devices, which are color coded depending on if the device is gigabit capable or only 100-Base (amber for 100-base, green for gigabit). The lights blink for activity. If it matters I have the 5V version. There was no need to configure anything when I connected everything up, because it just worked. I definitely recommend this switch to anyone.

Ran out of ports on my router and needed to expand. Great product! Does the job with speed and without any hang-ups. Amazon had the best price and shipping was free and speedy.Digital camera Review: D-Link Gigabit Switch
