Check the Ethernet cable

If you connect a radio and the Ethernet LED does not light on the radio, you may
have used the wrong cable type. In other words, you may have used a cross-
over cable when you should have used a straight-through cable, or vice versa.

Use a straight-through cable when connecting the radio to an Ethernet hub or a
10/100 Base-T Ethernet switch. Straight-through cables are used in most cases.

Use a cross-over cable when connecting the Ethernet radio directly to any device
that is NOT a switch or a hub (for example, a direct connection to a PC, PLC, or
printer).
