Port Status LED not lit for a 10BASE-T port that has a
connection.
There is a problem with this connection.
Check that you are using a straight-through 10BASE-T cable
which is properly connected at both ends, and is not
damaged. If the cable is connected to port 4, ensure that
the Uplink/Normal switch is set to Normal (out). Also check
that the equipment being connected to the hub is powered
on and operating correctly. Refer to Figure 6 below to
compare the wiring of a straight-through and a crossover
cable.
