Section 3 - Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Do I need to use a crossover cable or straight-through cable? With most of D-Link’s switches/routers, the Ethernet ports are Auto MDI-II/MDI-X. This means the port will auto-detect the cable type. Auto MDI-II/MDI-X ports may react differently if the Ethernet cable is not properly pinned. If you make your own cables, it is very important that they follow the industry standard pin-out (568A and 568B).
