Is there a stable Ethernet connection between PC and network?
Check the network cable between EXDUL-581 and the network socket
(RJ45 wall outlet), the active Ethernet switch or Ethernet hub. The Ethernet
cable has to be suitable for the Ethernet connnection, undamaged and
properly plugged at both ends. Current computers mostly provide two
LED's on the network socket of the network adapter. If connection to the
network is established, the green LED is lit continuously. If the network
socket of the computer provides only one LED it flashes or flickers when
network connection is operating.
Is the network cable used suitable for the connection?
When connecting EXDUL-581 to a switch, hub or PC with an auto MDI-X
supporting Ethernet interface, a standard network cable (Cat 5 or above)
can be used. Older computers whose Ethernet interface does not automa-
tically cross the transmission and receiver lines, may require a crossover
cable or crossover adapter.
Is the wall-mounted network outlet active?
If you connect the EXDUL-581 to a permanent installed network via a wall
outlet, together with your network administrator check whether the wall
socket is active and connected to an active Ethernet switch or Ethernet
hub.
Is the computer's Ethernet interface activated?
The Ethernet adapter has to be activated in the BIOS of your PC. Check
the Windows Device Manager whether it is listed under network adapter.
The entry must not be marked with an exclamation mark!
Are the computer's network settings correct?
Each active device in a TCP-IP based network requires a unique IP address,
which is structured into a network ID and a device ID. The Subnet mask
separates the IP address in a network part (network prefix, network ID)
and a device part (device ID).
