Question about Netgear Gs108ge

I only have one Internet socket in my room, but I have two computers that I would like to connect. Can I use this device for this? Would I have to plug the Lan cable connected to the power socket into one of the eight ports and then the computers (again with two Lan cables) into two other ports? I don't see/understand where/how the internet is routed to the Swich... Thanks for your help!

Yes, you can use the Netgear GS108 device to connect your two computers and the Internet connection.

Here's how you can set it up:

1. internet connection: plug the LAN cable connected to your internet outlet (or router) into one of the eight ports on the switch. This port will serve as the 'uplink' or connection to the Internet.

2. computer connections: Plug the LAN cables from your two computers into two other ports on the switch.

The device is an unmanaged switch, which means it requires no configuration or software installation. It is plug-and-play, i.e. it automatically recognises and adapts to the network speed and cable types to ensure optimal performance.

This configuration routes the internet through the switch to both your computers and you can use both devices simultaneously.
