Great seller who delivered very fast. Thank you so much for the router and for the prompt delivery. It was in a sealed package and everything was in there, it is perfect and exactly what I needed, thank you.
No set-up, plug it in to the wall, plug in the cat 5 cables to switch and it takes care of it The Linksys 8 port switch is an excelent product to expand ypur netrwork. Simple, out of the box use.
I would buy this product again. This workgroup switch works GREAT. Although I only have one computer hooked up at this point, I have had no problems with it over the past month or so.
Linksys 8 Port Switch EZXS88W ver 3.4 arrived fast in new shrink wrapped box from Beach Camera through Amazon. I'll be back if it doesn't.I'm back. The Switch OK. 30 minutes on the phone and Linksys is sending a new Adapter RMA in 3-5 business days.
So far I can't blame Beach at all, but Linksys support was less than cooperative the second time I called about the replacement adapter not solving the problem. Got the RMA replacement Power Adapter from Linksys in 5 days. Same problem. The switch itself still will function with my old 5 port power adapter but neither of the new power adapters from Linksys. I've requested by email a return for exchange or refund to Beach Camera and hope they cover the return postage in either case. The Power Adapter was dead on arrival.
No joy. I hooked my laptops to it and was up and running on the Internet through the switch with the 5 port power adapter both times. I had an old Adapter for my 5 Port to check it. Hope it works.
If you're looking for an inexpensive switch, I might suggest buying several of these so you can be sure to get at least one good one, keep another good one as a backup, and return the remainder. Mine, on the other hand, thinks there is always something connected to port 4, bringing down the entire network. Actually connecting something to port 4 solved that problem, but I'm still experiencing intermittant periods of packet loss of about 25% that require multiple restarts of the switch to correct. I bought this to replace a Linksys 5-Port Switch that died after several years of use. Otherwise spend the extra money for a switch made by a company with actual quality control. I definintely got a bad one, but it's so inexpensive, it's not really worth the expense and inconvenience of returning it to either Linksys or the marketplace seller. I'll be surprised if this one lasts a year. This should be a fool-proof device, and probably is if you get a good unit.
