LED Indicators 

 

GE-2032R comes with six LED indicators on the backplane of the adapter. LED indicators 
inform you about the network status as shown in the Fig. 3-1. 
If you experience any problem with the adapter, first check the followings: 
 

 

the appropriate driver is loaded 

 

the proper cable is connected to the RJ-45 port of the adapter 

 

the switch should complies with the 10/100/1000BASE-TX specifications.  

 
You should make sure that all the above requirements are met, then check the LEDs again to 
make sure the connection is valid and working.

The NIC supports full duplex at 10/100/1000BASE-TX. If the switch supports NWay feature 
and full duplex, the GE-2032R NIC automatically runs in full duplex. 
 
If there is a problem with the connection, first check the network cable for possible breach. If 
that does not resolve the problem, try to replace the cable.
