Suggested Action
Verify if the power cord is securely connected to the switch
and a wall socket/power strip.
1. Verify if the Ethernet cable is securely connected to your
LAN switch/hub/PC and to the switch. Make sure the PC
and/or hub/switch is turned on.
2. Verify if your cable is sufficient for your network require-
ments. A 1000 Mbps network (1000BaseTx) should use
cables labeled Cat 5. 10Mbit/sec cables may tolerate lower
quality cables.
1. Check the Ethernet cabling is good and the LED is green.
2. If the port LED is amber, check if this port is disabled. You
may experience a disconnected network in a short period
(around 1 minute) if you just turned on the STP.
1. The switch is powered up and the connecting port is
enabled. The factory default IP for the switch is 192.168.1.1.
2. Verify your network setup in your PC for this in-
formation. If your PC does not have a valid route
to access the switch, change the switch IP to an
appropriate IP that your PC can access.
3. Ping "switch IP" from the PC, if it still fails, repeat step 2.
