Troubleshooting
1. After connecting the TPE-224WS to a power outlet, the LEDs do not turn on.
1. Check the connection of the power cord to the TPE-224WS and the power outlet.
2. Check that the power outlet is receiving power.
2. When I access the TPE-224WS using a web browser, I get a screen that tells
me “only one user can login”. What should I do?
Another computer is configuring the TPE-224WS. Please wait until the user logs
off. If the other user has already logged off and you still get the same screen, then
disconnect the power cord from the TPE-224WS, wait for 5 seconds, reconnect the
power cord to the TPE-224WS, allow 5 seconds for the switch to power on, and
then attempt to access the web configuration page again.
3. I forgot the administration password. How do I reset my TPE-224WS?
Press on the reset button using a pen or paperclip for 10 seconds. The
default password is admin. Note: The default password is case sensitive.
4. When I connect a computer to the Switch's Gigabit Ethernet port, I am not
getting Gigabit speeds. What should I do?
1. Check the LEDs on the Switch. When the 1000Mbps LED remains off and the
100Mbps LED remains on, the computer's connection speed is 100Mbps. When
the 1000Mbps and 100Mbps LEDs remain off, the computer's connection speed
is 10Mbps.
2. Make sure that you have a Gigabit Ethernet adapter installed.
3. Make sure to use a Cat. 5e or Cat. 6 Ethernet cable. Some Cat. 5 cables are
not rated to run in Gigabit.
5. My 802.3af PoE Device does not power on when I plug the device into the
Switch. What should I do?
1. Verify that the PoE device supports IEEE 802.3af Mode A protocol.
2. Power cycle the PoE switch. Unplug power to the Switch, wait 15 seconds, then
plug the power back in.
3. Plug the device into a different port on the PoE switch.
4. Try using another RJ-45 network cable.
