To complete the installation, connect the power adapter first to the power jack on
the hub rear panel and then to the power outlet on the wall. 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.”
Refer to this table and the information that follows the table to troubleshoot your
Model FE116 hub.
Symptom Cause Solution
Amber Col (collision) LED
blinks.
Data collision is normal on
Ethernet networks.
No action is required.
Amber Col LED blinks
excessively.
There is data 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
half-duplex 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 cables
are used.
Make sure the correct UTP
cables are used. See the
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.
