### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Will nolonger work with Virgin Media Hub 5
*by M***R on 13 March 2024*

This was working perfectly in my network until a couple of weeks ago.All of a sudden it stopped working. My entire network broke.I called Virgin Media support and even had an engineer around. IWe were unable to get it working.I've since found out that a Virgin Media Hub 5 update has broken the 2.5 gbps port.The workaround is to disable the energy efficiency mode on the switch, which there is no way to do on an unmanaged switch, such as this.I'd recommend not buying one of these if you have Virgin Media 1 gbps service because it might not work.I replaced mine with the 8 port TP-Link 8 port 2.5 gbps switch and that works.l, fortunately. Although it is significantly more expensive.Note, this is not actually the fault of this switch. It's actually Virgin Media's Hub 5 that's at fault.Hopefully they will fix the firmware soon.I hope someone finds this useful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the switch works really well.
*by Q***D on 23 October 2024*

The media could not be loaded. After a long long though, I finally purchased the BrosTrend 8-Port 2.5G Ethernet Network Switch, and I couldn't be more satisfied with its performance. As someone with multiple computers and devices that require reliable internet connectivity, this switch has truly been a game-changer.Setup and Design: The installation was a breeze! I simply plugged it in and connected my devices, and it was ready to go. The sleek design with fanless really suits me well as shown in the pictures.Performance: The speed and reliability of this unmanaged switch are impressive. With 2.5G support, I noticed a significant boost in network speed between my two computers as shown in the video.Overall, the BrosTrend 8-Port 2.5G Ethernet Network Switch is an excellent investment for anyone looking to enhance their network's performance. If you have multiple devices and need reliable connectivity, I highly recommend this switch. It has exceeded my expectations and made my network experience much more enjoyable!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recommended
*by G***Y on 5 October 2023*

I’m impressed! , Good value and features for the price. Link aggregation is a killer feature on an unmanaged switch, enabling me to double the speed of an olde QNAP NAS (linux kernel v4) which does not support the latest 2.5G dongles. Uses 6 watts idle + 1 watt for each active conection. Switch gets warm but not hot unless fully loaded with approximately 14 watts of heat to dissipate. Most 2.5G switches seem to get very hot or are unstable , but I am very pleased with this switch so far. Will update review if any problems are encountered….
