Solving Problems

Wired Connections

If the network connection is lost — The cable

is loose or damaged.

Check the cable to ensure it is plugged in

and not damaged.

The link integrity and network activity lights on

the integrated network connector let you verify

that your connection is working and provide

information on the status:

No activity — Both the link integrity and

network activity lights are off.
10 Mbs — The link integrity light is off and

the network activity light is blinking yellow.
100 Mbs — The link integrity light is green

and the network activity light is blinking

yellow.
1000 Mbs — The link integrity light is orange

and the network activity light is blinking

yellow.

NOTE: The link integrity light on the network

connector is only for the wired cable

connection. The link integrity light does not

provide status for wireless connections.

Power Problems

If the power light is off — The computer is

either turned off or is not receiving power.

Reseat the power cable into both the

power connector on the computer and the

electrical outlet.
If the computer is plugged into a power strip,

ensure that the power strip is plugged into

an electrical outlet and that the power strip

is turned on. Also bypass power protection

devices, power strips, and power extension

cables to verify that the computer turns on

properly.
