ProSAFE 26-Port Fast Ethernet Smart Switch FS526Tv2

Configuration

If problems occur after you alter the network configuration, restore the original connections

and determine the problem by implementing the new changes, one step at a time. Ensure

that cable distances, repeater limits, and other physical aspects of the installation do not

exceed the Ethernet limitations.

Switch Integrity

If necessary, verify the integrity of the switch by resetting the switch. To reset the switch,

disconnect the AC power from the switch and then reconnect the AC power. If the problem

continues, contact NETGEAR technical support:

•Phone (US & Canada only): 1-888-NETGEAR.

•Phone (Other Countries): Check the list of phone numbers at

http://support.netgear.com/general/contact/default.aspx.

Autonegotiation

The RJ-45 ports negotiate the correct duplex mode and speed if the device at the other end

of the link supports autonegotiation. If the device does not support autonegotiation, the switch

determines only the speed correctly, and the duplex mode defaults to half-duplex.
