Recommended switch for use with Sky Max router
Hi,
I have recently moved house and the new property has a lot more requirement for physical ethernet connectivity than what i am used to. I have connected to Sky Fibre and have a new Sky Max router which is all working fine, Is there a recommended switch that i can plug into one of the ports to give a couple more Ethernet ports? I can see these 10/100/1000 are available for £15 but wanted to see if there was a recommended one that someone currently uses? Or any to avoid,?
Thanks
Simon

@Donnysi Used on the older SR203 the Tp-Link TL-SG105S and still using it now but removed the old SR from use, but any unmanaged should be fine on the Ethernet!

Go for a recognisable brand name rather than anonymous Amazon/eBay. Personally I use Netgear because their metal enclosures are more robust than some other plastic makes.
