I have one made by Belkin and it rocks. Mine only has a 3 port switch though. This is something that works great when you're living in a place that has new wiring. Older homes may not have the best signal quality/speed. I think I paid about $100 for mine when it was on sale. I ended up connecting my Xbox and PS3 as well as my Directv DVR up to it and it much much more reliable than using the wireless features on the PS3 and Xbox.

I just use a wireless Print Server to hook my Denon 4806CI and Toshiba HDVD. Works like a charm.

I got this after our wireless internet started getting more and more unreliable. This is fantastic!

I'm using Zyxel's version of the same technology and even with old wiring, the signal is better than with wireless (very crowded RF area in this apartment): http://us.zyxel.com/Products/details...7-018454486D14
