Product ReviewsD-Link DSS (DSS5+) 5-Ports External Switch

This is not a router.

I've seen a bunch of listings saying this is a router, it is a switch. Even some web pages suggesting a switch like this to hook more than one computer to the internet. This connects after the router to give the router more ports. It will not work directly with your modem. Found this out the hard way. Well at least it was cheap! I have seen a router with only one port, why?, this would probably work great with that. Other wise a router with 4 or more ports is the better way to go. For what it does it's good but if you need more than 4 ports on your router I would suggest a WiFi router 1st.Read full review...

D-Link DSS 5 Plus - switch - 5 ports

The switch has worked perfectly for me. - I wanted to add a WIFI access point at the end of a long ethernet cable run, in addition to the ethernet cable connection.

I plugged in the necessary cables for the switch, the computer requiring the ethernet connection, and the WIFI access point. Within a few seconds I had both ethernet and WIFI access in the room. There was no software to fool with, or setup procedures... A soon as I got it all hooked up, everything started working just fine.

- So I will say that my satisfaction with this product is 100%Read full review...
