Rating: Summary: I wouldn't waste my money on this! Review: 10 base ethernet is outdated technology. I worked for my school's info-tech department for a year and Netgear hubs were notorious for breaking, we have since switched to agere and have far fewer problems.

Rating: Summary: Just wish it was cheaper Review: A great hub that allows you to share an uplink onto another network with 3 computers or have a local network of 4 computers. Either way, the hub has been very reliable and performance has been as promised. Netgear is known for making quality Ethernet products and this is just another one of them.
Rating: Summary: Great Little Hub Review: First off, I would like to reccommend this to anyone trying to startup a small little network in there home/office.Its Fast enough for all Ive got to do and more. Two Draw backs, one is, Right out of the package, the AC Port on the back is loose, so if you jiggle it a little bit, it turns off. The Second is that the Ports are in the front, which, in some cases is good, but sitting it on my desk, it is an inconveient spot, when I need to see the lights on the front. The Lights above the port is a great idea, and for that it makes it worth a little inconvence. Yours, Matthew
Rating: Summary: What else can you ask for? Review: For just a simple 10 Mbps hub, this is an excellent one for the price. It is compact and sturdy, especially with the metal casing. Link and status lights are handy along with the Normal/Uplink switch. No software installation needed - plug the power in and the CAT cables and you're all set!
Rating: Summary: This Hub Rocks Review: For this price, you can not expect more: compact size, the easiness to install, and the very clever design making it a perfect home network product. If you've already had NIC installed, you network can be up and running in less than five minutes. It's that simple. Keep in mind that this hub is 10 based, if the speed is important to you, then you should consider the 100 based hubs. If you're trying to connect Windows 9x and Windows 2000, make sure to load the NetBUEI protocol into you Win 2000 machine. In general, NetBUEI is one of the default protocols on Win 9x, but not on Win 2000.
Rating: Summary: Cheap, reliable, easy Review: Having never used hubs before, I was somewhat wary of buying one, but this one proved to be a great choice. It was ridiculously easy to install (just make sure to have a crossover cable going to the DSL modem and a straight cable going to each PC you connect). It's extremely reliable, I hadn't had any problems because of it after three months of use, nor do I expect any. It's tiny and doesn't take much space, and you certainly can't beat the price. Absolutely worth every penny.
Rating: Summary: The best hub for a home network Review: I bought this hub to connect the computers in my home so they could share a cable modem. I looked at a lot of 10Base-T hubs, and found this one to be among the least expensive with the best satisfaction ratings. I am especially impressed with the hub's small size and metal case -- other hubs are larger and have plastic cases. To me, the best recommendation for a piece of network hardware is that you never have to think about it, it just works. This hub gives me that in spades.
Rating: Summary: A hub that works very well for the price Review: I have been using it for about a year now with a home network of 3 computers and it has worked flawlessly. If you need a simple hub for a home network and don't want to spend a large sum I would suggest this hub.
Rating: Summary: Great for Home Network! Review: I have bought two of these for home and office use. They work flawlessy and for the price you cannot beat the functionality. I was running at least Windows 98 on all computers I hooked up to the ethernet hub. Windows makes it easy to set up file and printer sharing. After you are hooked up to a network you will not need to swap disks all the time in order to exchange information or to move files for printing. You can transfer a hundred megabytes in a minute or two depending on the kinds of files. Setup is a breeze if you have ethernet cards installed already. Even if you do not have cards installed already there are instructions to walk you through step by step.
