tp-link 8 Port Gigabit Desktop Network Switch Unboxing

[@jsimon1080]

This switch used to have 2 leds per port (green and amber) and you could tell if a device was linked at 100mbit instead of 1gbit. Does the new design still show the link speed??

I know exactly what your talking about as I have an older 5 port switch which has the dual green and Amber lights on each port but as far as I can tell the the green LEDs on this switch are just showing activity and not speed.

Would you recommend this compared other switches? Thinking of grabbing the S version of this model

[@TylerDurden404]

why didn't they put the power plug on the same side as the ports? it is pretty stupid for cable management

[@angelakied]

what about the leds do they turn on? and how?

[@tekhCHEK]

Thanks for your question. There is a power led to the left of the ports that is always on when the device is plugged in and each port has a green activity LED above it that flashes green when a network connected cable is attached. Hope I have helped

Can i just use the plug and not the router? Also, can I plug a xbox one s in without the router?

When I plug everything in. I get connected but no internet? When I check connection settings it says unidentified network? Any advice on this situation?
