Verify that the hub and attached device are powered on. Be sure the cable is plugged into both the hub and attached device. Check the adapter on the attached device and cable connections for possible defects. See if your cable is functioning properly by using it for another port and attached device that displays valid indications when connected to the network. Replace the defective adapter or cable if necessary. Also verify that you have not exceeded specified limits for any attached media.
