Troubleshooting Tips
In the unlikely event your network is not operating properly,follow the
troubleshooting tips below.
Check your power connection.Is the green Power LED on? If not,plug the
power module into a different AC outlet.
Check your network cable.Is the green network Link LED on? If not, try
connecting a “known good” 10BaseT Ethernet network cable between
your hub and the adapter.You should see a Link LED on your hub and
your network adapter.
The maximum distance from any node (computer,printer,hub, switch, etc.) is
328 feet or 100 meters.Be sure your cable is not coiled, twisted or damaged.
When connecting the hub to a computer, be sure your cable is wired for
straight-through;pins 1, 2,3 and 6 should be matched pin-for-pin on both
ends.Note that pins 3 and 6 must use the same twisted pair;these are
typically orange/white orange or green/white green.
Check your uplink switch.When connecting to another hub or switch,set the
switch to uplink on only one hub/switch and use a standard, straight-through
network cable.This hub may be connected to another 10/100 Mbps switch or
hub;it may not be directly connected to a 100 Mbps hub or switch.
Check your computer’s software.Check your operating system manual for
instructions on configuring your network for file and print sharing.
