Troubleshooting
6-15
NOTE: When you first install the adapter and power up
the computer, the LED will be lit, but the link beat is
inactive. For the link beat to be active (enabled), you
need to have run the Group 3 test or have loaded the
network drivers.
If you are experiencing any problems, first make sure that
your hub complies with the 10BASE-T specifications.
Then check the LED.
■
If the LED is on, the link beat is working.
■
If the LED is off, the link beat has not been established
or there is a problem with the connection between the
adapter and the hub.
■
If the LED is blinking, the polarity is reversed.
Software
If you have installed the adapter correctly and you still
experience problems, check the software.
Make sure that you have configured your computer for
the adapter. Refer to Chapter 2.
Make sure that you have installed the correct drivers for
the network operating system you are running (refer to
Chapter 5).
