Review: Plugged it in and everything just worked - I needed a simple gigabit switch that would let me add more wired devices without turning it into a project. This did exactly that. No setup, no app, no fiddling with settings. I plugged everything in and all my devices came up at the speeds I expected. That is really all I wanted from it. It feels like the kind of networking gear you can forget about once it is installed, which is a compliment. If you just need a straightforward unmanaged switch for a home office, TV area, or desk setup, this is an easy win. Review: Good switch - This is a review of the DGS-105 switch. I'm happy with this switch and the price, performance and features. This switch is connected to my router's built-in switch on port 5 of the DGS-105. On port 1 I have my office PC and on port 2 I have connected my NAS storage server. I was concerned primarily when buying a switch that it be able to support a fast switch fabric so I can do multiple things simultaneously with no bottlenecks. I have tested the DGS-105 and I am able to get full throughput to my NAS of 115 MB/s read and write while my PC is simultaneously watching iTunes 4K streaming or Twitch. My NAS works with Dynamic DNS so I can access my files while on travel or out of the house and the switch works fine for this purpose and I tested to make sure this works. Works on the DGS-105. I used some adhesive foam tape to tape this to a shelf in my office because the cables coming out of the front can make it tweak or move on the shelf. I was mostly concerned with concurrent transfers when buying this and it works great on my home network with a really easy installation and good performance. If you're looking for a good switch for a small area of your home or office I would suggest the DGS-105 because it can handle lots of traffic with no seeming throughput issues. I'm happy with this purchase, the quality and the price. Hope this review helps you out. If you're wondering I'm using the Synology DiskStation DS918+ and this switch can support most of the features I use on the NAS. Works with DS file on Android and streaming to my AppleTV over Samba with no issues. ## Features - 16 GIGABIT PORTS – High-speed Gigabit ports allow you to connect up to 16 devices for fast file transfers and smooth media streaming. - SLIM DIMENSIONS - The DGS-1016S packs full functionality and Gigabit performance into a slim yet sturdy metal design. - QUALITY OF SERVICE - QoS support also enhances your network’s efficiency. QoS cleverly prioritizes network traffic so that time-sensitive data, such as VoIP or surveillance footage, are unaffected even during bursts of high-volume traffic. This allows for an all-around smoother, uninterrupted network experience. - SILENT OPERATION – With its fanless design, the DGS-1016S provides silent operation, perfect for noise-sensitive environments. - PLUG-AND-PLAY – No configuration or software needed. - ENERGY-EFFICIENT DESIGN - Compliant with IEEE802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet. Reduces heat generated and allows the switch to run silently while lowering the cost to operate. - AUTO POWER REDUCTION - Auto power reduction when the port has little or no traffic. - CABLE-LENGTH DETECTION - The DGS-1016S can determine the approximate length of cables attached to each port to apply just enough power for data transmission on that link, saving even more power while lowering total cost of ownership (TCO). - WORK FROM HOME READY – Perfect for work, learn or play. - INDUSTRY LEADING WARRANTY – 5 Year Product Coverage. D-Link will repair or replace defective hardware 5 years from the date of purchase. Internal power supplies and fans have a 5 Year warranty.

I used about 80feet of Cat-6 wire with the RJ45 end and have no loss in internet speed. **Q: Can you assign an IP address to this ethernet switch?** A: No. This is an unmanaged switch. **Q: Is this compatible with Time Warner services in New York city?** A: Yes. **Q: How often do you lose connection and have to reset the "switch" by unplugging power & plug back in? Thank you** A: I am not able to with 100% certainty tell you that it's this switch (the 16-port version) that's causing me to lose connectivity in one area of the office, but I feel that it might be the culprit. Other areas not hooked to the switch are unaffected. I've had to unplug and power down/up the device a number of times. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plugged it in and everything just worked *by C***P on June 1, 2026* I needed a simple gigabit switch that would let me add more wired devices without turning it into a project.
