Review on 🔌 IOGEAR Universal 5-Port Wi-Fi N Ethernet Hub GWU647 (Black): Enhanced Connectivity and Networking Experience by Troy Jennings

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great but annoying high pitched sound

I bought this to connect wi-fi to my entertainment center where my receiver and dash cam only have ethernet, no wi-fi. The only functional issue was the one button WPS. I have followed the instructions for both the TP-LINK TL-WR841N Wireless N300 Home Router and this IOGEAR device but have not been able to sync them. No problem, I just manually entered the shared key into the well-designed and easy-to-use web interface on the hub and it connected to a very strong signal. I have an issue preventing me from using it in Entertainment Center. shrill scream. My wife doesn't mind it, but my dog and I seem to notice it while watching TV, and in a quiet room it's unbearable. I replaced it with enGenius which has no problems. I can try this hub in the office where I can hide it in a closet and hopefully use it without a headache.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Big and bulky
