No Ethernet status lights?

Hello all,
i've just dusted off an old 1600 Ethernet module, connected it to my
hub, and i get a solid red status light, and none of the communication
leds are lit (link, rx, tx, 100mbs).  i did a reset, no
help.  And of course Measurment explorer cannot find this
device.  my question is, should i have a link LED lit before i
even go any further?  i've tried 2 cat5 cables, and i know both of
them are ok.
thanks in advance

Hi Phil,
The status light indicates an error. When the light stays lit the fieldpoint module needs to be configured with the proper IP address. However, when you reset the module and it is connected to a network or directly to a computer, the link light should be lit. I am giving you the links to some FieldPoint troubleshooting knowledgebases and tutorials, but I recommend troubleshooting the network connection part of the problem first. Try connected the module to a network and try connecting directly to a computer via a crossover cable as well. I hope that you find this information helpful.

  • My Apple tv status light is blinking fast - how do I troubleshoot?

    my Apple TV gen 2 status light is blinking fast and I am not able to see anything from my Apple TV - how do I troubleshoot?  What I read on the Apple site is that my Apple TV has issues.  My Apple TV is hard wired to my Ethernet network.  It is connected to my TV using an HDMI cable.  It worked in the past but when I turned it on today it did not work.  I have not used it in several months and we had a bad thunderstorm here a couple weeks ago.

    I'm having the same problems as you. Any solutions? This is what i'm facing
    1. No video signal at all
    2. Plugged in power cable only, there is no light
    3. Plugged in micro usb, there is flashing light
    4. Restore via iTunes is sucessful but problem still persists

  • Interpretation of status lights colours when starting up a new time capsule

    Time capsule documentation on the booklet included in the packaging about the light status is relatively uncomplete and leading to confusion when interpreting the colours on the fisrt start up.
    The light indeed may not come green at all despite the fact that the Time capsule is already connected to the Internet. It may flash slowly amber and you may have as well the Airport section connected. Consequently the amber flashing light is not only reflecting an Internet connection problem
    The status light in fact reports about to main activities 1 the Internet connection status 2 the network status.
    Using a home DSL modem to connect the Time Capsule with an ethernet cable, open Airport Utility, waiting a few seconds. One can see two leds on the screen. Top one is for the Internet status and left bottom one for the Network status.
    If the Time Capsule flashes amber, it may have a green status led on the Internet connection while having an amber status led on the Network side.
    When being on the Airport Utility screen clicking on the Capsule will bring up a comment about the problem, asking to change the parameters of the router.
    Choosing the bridge disconnected mode will clear  the problem and the status light of the Capsule will finally turn to green colour. On the Aiport Utility screen both ledswill be then green.

    By default, it should use Ethernet if both are available, but if the "service order" in your Network Preferences gets shuffled, it may not.
    Be sure it's really using Ethernet (turn WIFI off briefly). 
    There's a single, fixed partition on the TC's internal HD -- you can't partition it.
    Something is clearly wrong; you should get something like 20-25 GB/hour (overall, with a lot of variation), in that configuration.  See #D2 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.

  • Status light is blinking

    How do I fix my AirPort Extreme?  The status light is blinking and I no longer have Internet access.

    A persistent, flashing amber light indicates that any of the several potential conditions may require your attention:
    The base station has not yet been configured because it is new, or the reset switch has been set.
    You have selected a security configuration that is not recommended.
    One of several other conditions, such as a disconnected Ethernet cable or invalid IP address has been detected.
    (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305101)
    If you run the AirPort Utility, it will show an amber circle on the summary page next to the area(s) causing the problem. Click on this amber circle and it should provide an explanation. Please post back your results.

  • Time Capsule Status light is off

    Why is the Time Capsule Status light off even though it is plugged in? The disc is spinning but it is not found in Airport Utility.

    You have a Gen4 (look on the base A1409) that has committed ritual suicide..
    Leave it unpowered for 12 hours.. then plug in again.. does the LED flash at all at start up.. LEDs on the ethernet ports.. no flash then no recovery.
    It is now dead. At least the main router part is. The disk spinning shows it is not a failed power supply.. unfortunately I cannot even offer you a repair method. I did get one that failed that way.. pulled it apart and checked all the power supplies inside.. nothing was bad.. put it back to together and it started working again.. I do not know why but it has been reliable and working ever since. I do not therefore know what was actually the fault.
    All I can suggest is the same treatment.. you have to pull it down and actually lift the board out.. ensure all the heat sink sticky tabs are connected and put it back together.. who knows.
    You can at least recover what is on the hard disk if you need to, by putting the hard disk in a USB holder and plugging it into your computer.
    If it is less than 3years old and you have applecare on a computer, you bought within 2years of the purchasing the TC.. apple may replace it.. check the rules as they are complex and convoluted.

  • FBUS-HSE/H1 not detecting 100Mbps and status light blinking green

    I had the HSE/H1 connected to my network, but it decided to go crazy on me and drop off the map. I know the IP Address of the unit, but am unable to connect with it anymore. I did a factory reset on the unit, but am unsure if that resets the IP address as well. If that is the case what is the best way to force an IP address on the unit? The status light blinks green at a rather fast rate as well. I can add the ethernet interface board in the interface fonfiguration utility, but can not add the hse/h1 LD since it just sits there and listens for the board forever. I hope it is an easy fix and not a matter of the unit died on me.
    Thanks
    Kyle

    The blinking status LED indicates that the linking device is in standby state. The linking device will be assigned an IP address automatically through DHCP. 
    Please check whether the linking device and the host PC are in the same subnet. Otherwise, the linking device will not be detected.

    I was checking another thing, usually the switches we use here in my work supports a maximum of 14W per port or 15.4w, this wap is consuming 15.2w
    Is this the problem??
    the strange to me is that,in this same sw I have several WAP and they all use 12.2w
    The device type in sw for WAP usually appears as LAP1131AG-AIR-E-K9 ... but this WAP appears as Ieee PD ...
    What problems do you think is it?

  • Have 2 airport extreme base stations connected in chain.  Airport utility shows slave unit without power. However, power is on slave unit, but status lights do not show up at all. Small green lights at each back port blink.  Anyone have any ideas?

    Have 2 airport extreme base stations connected in chain.  Airport utility shows slave unit without power. However, power is on slave unit, but status lights do not show up at all. Small green lights at each back port blink.  Anyone have any ideas?

    Unfortunately, you are describing the symptoms of an AirPort Extreme with a failing (or failed) internal power supply.
    As a last resort, try a Factory Default Reset on the AirPort Extreme as follows:
    Power off the AirPort by pulling the power cord
    Wait a minute or two
    Hold in the reset button first, and keep holding it in for an additional 8-10 seconds while you simultaneously plug the power back into the AirPort
    Release the reset button and allow a full minute for the AirPort to restart
    Now try to configure the AirPort again.  If you continue to see the same symptoms as before, the AirPort will need to be replaced.

  • HT3728 No status light at all on Airport/Time capsule. I can plug internet cable directly into bac of my MAC and have internet access no problem. Is my Airport dead and need to be replaced??

    I have NO status light on my Airport/Time Machine, I unplugged the internet connection from back of Airport and plugged directly into my MAC and am able to get to the internet just fine.
    The Airport is almost 6 years old

    Unfortunately, yes.  On the upside, your Time Capsule lasted about twice as long as normal.

  • My airport time capsule did not set up successfully, and then status light flash amber

    Hi, Guys
      I am the first time user of the time capsule, please help how to proceed?
      I have set up the first time and my airport time capsule does not set successfully, then I try to reset to factory setting. After this, although I use the ethenet cable to connect the router to the airport, the status light flash amber, always, even after the reset.
      Also, I can see that airport time capsule base station from the wireless network when airport is plugged in. However, when I want to access to it.

    Thanks for your guidance, but the product is really anoying. First, I am sure that the airpor utilities is 6.3.
    and I also follow your instruction that to set the IPv6 as local link mode. But still get the same error as mentioned in my first post.
    Therefore, I have tried to use the bridge mode but could not find it, and therefore still can not set it up successfully, even though I reset the factory again(press the reset button 5 secconds at least).

  • Solid amber status light on ASA 5505

    Hi,
    I have a Problem with a ASA 5505
    when i power on the ASA  the Power LED change to green and the Status light to solid amber.
    There is no Console output or anything else.
    Is this a DRAM or Flash Problem?
    What can i do ?
    thanks a lot!

    Had the same problem, and this fixed it for me.  If i plug the power supply into the ASA then plug the power supply into the wall, i get the amber status light and green lights flashing failure.  However if I plug the PSU into the wall first, then wait a few minutes and plug the tiny little adapter(Fail on the adapter design Cisco) into the ASA 5505, ta-da it works!   It seems like the PSU needs to build up the power before being plugged into the ASA.  I don't know for sure, but this works for me.   I never wanted to plug in the tiny adapter first because i was afraid of it arcing in the adapter and that causeing problems, but this method works for me, hope it helps.

  • Apple TV 3 Status Light turns ON and stays ON when I turn ON my Broadband Modem. How do I stop this ?

    Since I updated my Apple TV 3 to 5.1.1, the Status Light turns ON and stays ON when I turn ON my Broadband Modem. How do I stop this ?
    At the moment I have to go to the HDMI channel that my  ATV 3 is connected to, wake the ATV, then put it back to sleep, to turn OFF the status lght.
    When I first got my ATV I did not have this problem, when it was running 5.1.0.
    I sent in a Feedback form, but they only as the option to select the OS version of a NON iOS device.
    Is there a fix to this that wont involve me leaving my modem ON all the time ?
    I turn my modem OFF when I am not using the Internet because I am a bit paranoid about the security of the data on my devices, and if I leave the modem turned ON all the time it might make me an easier target for hackers etc. { This is NOT part of my question, just explaining why I turn my modem OFF ( I feel safer ) }
    <Edited by Host>

    The ATV3 does that to me when I turn on my TV. the light goes on and stays on. If I switch to the ATV3, it seems to be half asleep with the light on ... I do wish Apple would enable the HDMI CEC and then everything would make sense. I've turned off my wireless and on again but the ATV3 light does not turn on automatically for me.
    As you pointed out, I guess this could be a small glitch on the new firmware/software update... I wonder if this could be fixed by doing a restore from the iTunes app. I might give it a try tomorrow and see what happens...
    Cheers!

  • So i connected my ipod shuffle to my apple computer and the status light on my ipod shuffle shows that it is charging but when i look for it on the pc dock or in itunes it doesn't show it at all.... so what do I do???

    If you have not already, I would shut down (power off) your computer.  Do this to Reset your shuffle
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
    Start up computer.  Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle.
    If you have added a new USB device recently (since the last time it worked properly), you may want to try disconnecting it to see if that makes any difference.

  • When I plug in apple tv the status light just blinks amber and nothing appears on the screen

    When I plug in my apple tv (first gen) the status light just blinks amber and nothing appears on the screen.  The status light never turns white and won't stops blinking amber.  I've tried to over ride this with the remote, resetting it and trying to revert it to the factory settings.  Is there a way to wake it up or is it a lost cause?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The system looks like it's unable to start up, this could be software but more likely hardware, either way unless it will start up there is nothing a user can do to resolve this.

  • Apple TV loses picture output and status light flashes rapidly after 5 minutes hooked up via HDMI - DVI cable

    Apple TV connected to a 2005 50" plasma monitor with DVI input via belekin HDMI to DVI cable.  Unit worked perfectly long enough to get it connected to the wireless network and begin the itunes registration process when there was a loss of signal message on the screen from the monitor and the Apple TV status light flashed rapidly and continuously. Reset and reboot yeilded flashing rapid status light and no output detected from the monitor.  I contacted support online and was told to return the unit to the apple store.  I returned home with another brand new apple tv and connected it in the same manner with exactly the same results.  Is there something with the HDMI - DVI interface that is causing this?  Are there known issues with the HDMI - DVI connection to Apple TV with older plasma monitors?

    The Apple TV doesn't actually support DVI. Some have managed to get it to work others have had varying issues with it.
