Troubleshooting Tips

Here are some tips for correcting simple problems you may have.
• Be sure to power on your PC and switch in the correct sequence.
Follow this sequence. Turn off the switch and computer. First, turn on the switch
and wait two minutes. Next, turn on the computer.
• Make sure the Ethernet cables are securely plugged in.
For each powered on computer connected to the switch with a securely plugged
in Ethernet cable, the corresponding switch LAN port status light will be lit.
• Make sure the network settings of the computer are correct.
In most cases, computers should be configured to obtain an IP address via
DHCP. For help with this, refer to the GS716T/GS724T Reference Manual; a
November 2010 link to the online Reference Manual is on the Resource CD.
If your network uses static IP addresses, be sure the switch and computer are
configured with valid IP addresses.
