Troubleshooting
My 10/100/1000 Mbps 8-Port 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 1000 Mbps.
You may be using a 10/100 Mbps device. A blinking orange light indicates you are receiving and
transmitting data at 10/100 Mbps. A blinking green light indicates you are receiving and
transmitting data at 1000 Mbps. To achieve 1000 Mbps speeds, replace any 10/100 Mbps devices
you are using with 1000 Mbps devices.
Possible Solution:
Verify you are using a known and reliable RJ-45 Category 5 Ethernet cable. An old or unreliable RJ-
45 Category 5 Ethernet cable could diminish your link quality. It may be necessary to replace your
RJ-45 Category 5 Ethernet cable.
Possible Solution:
The length of your Ethernet cable between your 10/100/1000 Mbps 8-Port Switch and your
workstation or computer should not exceed 328 feet.
Possible Solution:
Some power sources with strong electromagnetic fields may also be causing interference.
