Hi, you have said correct in my router was having gigabit lan ports ..I purchased this of using this tp link switch is that, network speed increases much, It never fluctuates, gives constant fixed maximum speed...

I really like your transparency for the affiliate links

The biggest benefit is wifi is a contention based media. Devices compete for airtime and only 1 station can transmit at 1 time. With a switch, you get full duplex with access to the media whenever you need it. I prefer hard wire everytime.

I imagine you would start to see bigger differences when you use wifi from another room.

I bought two of these units, thanks for the video!

Love your humor throughout! Lovely video. It is on sale right now over here in Germany and my wifi mesh extension only has 2 ports even though I need 3, so this is perfect! Thanks!

[andrewgeorgelang]

Thanks for the video, it made my mind up to go out and get one of these useful devices, my finding are exactly what's in the video, more than pleased.

Just bought one because i use deco mesh tower as my router. Only 3 ports. Was a handy little upgrade. I had to turn off loopback prevention because i have an ethernet running to a tplink archer c80 as a smart wifi as sometimes the smart devices dont connect to the smart dual band on the mesh

Your tests were limited by your Internet connection. If you had my connection, over 900 Mb down, I bet you'd see much different results, as my WiFi beats all your connections, but it doesn't come close to a wired connection. Also, when you wall mount a switch, do not put the connectors on the top side. They're great at collecting dust, which can interfere with the connection.

And how about the speed test when you have two devices plugged in? You have not tested this

[darrencashen]

Does the green light stay on when the device/console is turned off

[bazfeen]

You want to be testing the ping mate. The wifi & Lan speed are going to look the same to the naked eye on a test like that. LAN is better in every way possible

Does it has surge protection? I wouldn't dare to plug the cable (it's placed outdoor) from the router directly into my laptop since it'll go kaboom

[placesandspaces]

I have the same one this is simply the best one i have ever used, internet speed is faster no drop outs, highly recommended..

I have 3 wifi routers, can I use that as a splitter? Thanks in advance,

[ralph]

Thanks. What is the dc input voltage please?
