familiarize yourself with Fast EtheRx Switch. The functions on the front and

Power LED
The PWR LED indicates the power status of the Fast EtheRx switch. The LED
will light up steady green when the AC power cord is connected to the unit
from a power source and the power switch on the unit has been turned on.
100BASE-TX (100TX) LED
The 100TX LED will automatically light up when 100Mbps operation is
detected. This LED will not light up if 10Mbps operation is detected.
LINK/RX LED (for both 10 and 100Mbps)
The LINK/RX LED uses a single LED to display two functions. A steady
green light indicates that a good link has been established, and a flashing green
light indicates when data is being received. If the LED does not display solid
green indicating a good link, check the following:
1.
Make sure that the power is turned on for both the Fast
EtheRx Switch and the attached device.
2.
Verify that the drivers for the network adapter have been
loaded on the PC. Some network adapters require that the
driver be loaded before establishing a proper link.
