Troubleshooting

My 24-Port 10/100 Ethernet Switch is properly connected to my

Ethernet-ready device, but I still can’t establish a connection.

Possible Solution:

Verify you are using a known and reliable RJ-45 Category 5 Ethernet cable. An old or unreliable RJ-45 Category Ethernet cable could disrupt your connection. It may be necessary to replace your RJ-45 Category 5 Ethernet cable.

Possible Solution:

Check the LED status lights on your 24-Port 10/100 Ethernet Switch. If you don’t see any LEDs lighted or blinking, it may be necessary to replace your RJ-45 Category 5 Ethernet cable.

Possible Solution:

The length of your Ethernet cable between your 24-Port 10/100 Ethernet Switch and your work- station or computer should not exceed 328 feet. Some power sources with strong electromag- netic fields may be causing interference.

Possible Solution:

It may be necessary to reconfigure the network settings of your operating system. Refer to your operating system’s documentation regarding network configuration specifics.

My 24-Port 10/100 Ethernet Switch is properly connected to my

Ethernet-ready device but my connection speed is slow.

Possible Solution:

Verify that your network adapter and/or additional Ethernet-ready device supports 100 Mbps. You may be using a 10 Mbps device. To achieve 100 Mbps speeds, replace any 10 Mbps devices you are using with 100 Mbps devices.

Possible Solution:

Check the LED status lights on your 24-Port 10/100 Ethernet Switch. If you only see blinking LEDs, it may be necessary to replace your RJ-45 Category 5 Ethernet cable.

Possible Solution:

Verify you are using a known and reliable RJ-45 Category 5 Ethernet cable. An old or unreliable RJ-45 Category Ethernet cable could diminish your link quality. It may be necessary to replace your RJ-45 Category 5 Ethernet cable.
