Troubleshooting

When the computer is powered "ON", and the D-Link DGE-560T is inserted

into an open PCI Express slot, please check the following items if your LED

light is not "ON". When all items are working, your D-Link DGE-560T's

ACT/Link LED light should light up green ("linkage" state).

Make sure that your Ethernet Cat5 cable is in good working order.

Make sure that your hub or switch is powered "ON" and is functioning properly.

If the LED remains dark without any apparent cause, check the "Device Man-

ager". If there is an exclamation point next to the D-Link DGE-560T, then dou-

ble-click to open. A message indicating the error will appear.

After verifying that the D-Link DGE-560T has been installed correctly, check

steps 1 and 2 again. If you continue to encounter a problem, please call D-Link

Technical Support for assistance.

If you experience any problems with the hardware installation, first ascertain

that all network cable connections are firm, that the proper grade of cable is

used for the network connection, and that the cable makeup is correct (straight

without un-needed crossovers in the connector wiring). Check that the

supporting hub is powered-on and operating normally, and that the hub is

properly qualified (under 100Base-TX and/or 1000Base-T standards).

If more than one computer on your network has the same "Computer name",

communications may be negatively affected. Also, each computer must have

the same "Workgroup" name to communicate properly.
