Can't connect to Dlink GigE switch at 1000Mbps with built-in wired

I can connect to the switch automatically at 100Mbps or manually at 100 Mbps, but when I try to set the speed manually to 1000Mbps I get no light on the switch port and no connection. Cable is cat 5e, all 8 wires are in connector properly and tests good.
Switch is Dlink DGS-2208.
I've tried removing uplink 100Mbps connection going to router and only leaving a Windows box on that is connected fine at 1000Mbps with no luck either.
Any ideas anyone ?
Thanks.

First, you'll want to configure your connection to configure automatically; the adapter will negotiate the fastest speed possible with the switch. The only real reason to configure a connection manually is if you want to connect at a SLOWER speed than that automatically negotiated.
The cable is suspect. I've purchased several cat 5e cables that simply won't allow me to connect at 1g. Try picking up a high quality cat 6 patch cable and see if that helps - they aren't that expensive and are available pretty much everywhere (target, wal-mart, and office depot carry them routinely)
I routinely connect to a Netgear GS605NA 10/100/1000 switch at 1g speeds with both my macbook pro and mac pro. Mac pro uses belkin cat 6 6' snagless patch cables, MAcbook pro is currently connected with a belkin 6' cat 5e cable.

  • Ever since i forgot my apple id password and changed to a new one, I am continually being asked to enter my iCloud password. It then says that this mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with "my username". nothing I do in in preferences helps.

    You have to sign out completely in System Preference>iCloud (click 'Sign out') on a Mac, or Settings>iCloud on an iOS device (click 'Delete account' - this will not delete the account from the server). Then sign in with the new password.
    Your iCloud data will disappear from your Mac or device when you sign out but will reappear when you sign back in.

  • Can't connect to wifi in hotels in Ireland with iPhone 5

    Can't connect to wifi in hotels in Ireland with my iPhone 5. My iPad 3 works fine. When I enter the wifi password for the network I always get the error message "Incorrect password for XYZ". No problem with iPad 3.

    Returned home only to find the same situation with my home network. Much time on chat support with Apple. Short story long: Must have been corrupted software. Had to restore original original software then add back apps and music. Couldn't back up before doing the restore so I lost a bunch of pics, but at least the phone is working once again.

    In what way are you trying to connect? File sharing? Printer sharing? Screen sharing? Something else?
    How are your computers connected to this network? What happens when you try to connect to them?
    Best of luck.

  • How can I connect the iTunes in my iPad (now with iOS7) to my Power PC Mac?

    How can I connect the iTunes in my iPad (now with iOS7) to my Power PC Mac?

    Nope, the top OS version for the IBM processor is 10.5.8, and under that version I can not update the iTunes further than the 10.6.3 :-(
    But that means the brand leaves a large chunch os costumers with still perfectly operating computers out of the loop on purpose, so to force us to upgrade computer?
    Not fair at all, both are legitimate Apple products, they should sync no matter what! The sad thing is theu used to, before I migrated to iOS7 on the iPad, move that I now regret...

    Back up all data.
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
              8.8.8.8
              8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
    In Safari, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
    Notes:
    1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the  Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
    2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

  • How can I connect a Sony DCR-PC110 video camera with iMovie and import my videos?

    How can I connect my Sony video camera DCR-PC110 with iMovie in order to import my old videos?

    Hi
    This Camera has three types of ports.
    - Analog-out
    - USB
    - I.Link = FireWire = IEEE1394 = Digital in/out = DV-terminal
    And Your Camera only can send Photos via the USB-connection - NO VIDEO.
    So You Must get a FireWire Cable and eventually a ThunderBolt/FireWire converter Cable to get Import to work.
    There are no real way around this.
    Yours Bengt W

  • Can I connect my iPod classic or universal dock with optical

    Can I connect my iPod classic or universal dock with optical?

    Well, no... not at least with the Apple docks.
    Optical Audio is also called S/PDIF. It is a purely digital signal designed for specific kinds of home theater and HIFI systems.
    The iPod classic does not have such a connection... that being said,  HOWEVER  
    There are some iPod docks that use S/PDIF out.

    You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/resync your content to it.
    If you do it via a different computer that it's not normally synced to then (from here) :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

  • How Does one fix this-"This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with "My Email Address"

    Hello Apple Community:  I receive this message multiple times a day. 
    "This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with "My Email Address"  Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem. 
    After sighing into iCloud I can not find a problem.
    Is this a Yosemite issue, because thats when the issue started?
    Thanks for your help..

    Yes, this is a constant problem for me as well.  I have 2 Macs (iMac and old MacBook Pro) running Yosemite. I seem to only get this message on the iMac. I've tried logging out of ICloud on both and logging back in; the problem re-appears randomly.  I also have no issue on IOS devices.
    It's mainly annoying. I open the iCloud panel in System Preferences and it tends to go away.
