When power has been applied to the hub: · The green Pwr (power) LED on the front panel is on. · The green Link/Rx LED on each connected port is on. · The green Link/Rx LED on each connected port is blinking when data is being received by that port. If there are any problems, refer to "Troubleshooting Information. " Model FE116 Fast Ethernet Hub Installation Giude Troubleshooting Information Refer to this table and the information that follows the table to troubleshoot your Model FE116 hub. Symptom Amber Col (collision) LED blinks. Cause Data collision is normal on Ethernet networks. Solution No action is required. Amber Col LED There is data blinks excessively. collision on the network because the network is extremely busy or defective devices are connected on the network that cannot detect network traffic or collision. Make sure connected devices are operating in halfduplex mode. The Model FE116 hub is not compatible with devices that operate in full-duplex mode. If you suspect that there might be a defective device on the network, disconnect devices one at a time to isolate the defective unit on the network. If the network is extremely busy, you may have to segment the network with a Fast Ethernet switch such as the NETGEAR Model FS104 switch. Wrong or miswired Make sure the correct UTP cables are used. table in the installation section of this guide for cable use and Normal/Uplink push button information. Note that home telephone cables can cause a collision condition and cannot be used in place of UTP cables. The connected port is partitioned because of excessive collisions. The 100BASE-T RJ-45 port is partitioned after 32 consecutive collisions are detected. When the first good packet without a collision is received, the port is reconnected and the amber Partition LED turns off. Check and correct causes listed in this table for excessive collisions and make sure that: · The correct cable is used and the cable is not faulty. · There are no faulty connectors. · The network card in your PC is set to half-duplex mode. Check for a bad cable, cable pairs that are not correctly wired, or loose connectors. Make sure that there is power to the hub and the connected PC. Make sure the port has not been partitioned.
