Troubleshooting Tips
Here are some tips for correcting simple problems that might occur:
• If you cannot connect with the NETGEAR Insight app to the switch,
make sure that your mobile device and the switch are connected to the
same WiFi network.
• Make sure that the Ethernet cables are plugged in correctly and that for
each powered-on device connected to the switch, the corresponding
le port LED on the switch either lights solid green (indicating a valid
connection) or blinks green (indicating that trac is being processed).
• For model GC110P only, make sure that the PoE Max LED is o. The
switch provides a total power budget of 62 watts. If the PoE Max
LED is solid amber, disconnect one or more powered devices (PDs) to
prevent PoE oversubscription. Start by disconnecting the PD from the
highest-numbered port.
Note: You can also access the web browser-based management interface of
the switch to manually override the amount of power that is reserved for each
PoE port and attached PD. For more information, see the user manual, which
you can download by visiting netgear.com/support/product/GC110P.
• For model GC110P only, for each powered PD that is connected to
the switch, the corresponding le port LED on the switch either lights
solid green (indicating a valid connection) or blinks green (indicating
that trac is being processed), and the corresponding right port LED
on the switch lights solid green (indicating that PoE is being delivered
to the PD). If the right port LED lights solid amber, a PoE fault occurred.
