Make sure that your machine is powered on and is online and in Ready mode.
Print a Network Configuration list (see Printing Reports on page 7.) and check the
current Network settings printed in this list. Reconnect the LAN cable to the hub to
verify that the cabling and network connections are good. If possible, try
connecting the machine to a different port on your hub using a different cable. If
the connections are good, the machine shows LAN Active for 2 seconds.
(If you are having Network problems, see the Network User's Guide on the
CD-ROM for more information.)
