Morning all,
I'm having some issues with connecting a MS 8Port switch to my BT Home Hub 5.
Initially it connects successfully and reports all fine on the dashboard, however after approx 5 mins, the orange light appears on the front and it drops into offline. It doesn't show on the home hub as a connected device either. :S
I can't see any reason for it as i have had it working before.
Has anybody else seen this before?
Cheers
Neil
What did the local status page say?
In deseperation; does turning off spanning tree make any difference?
The local status page initially says its connected, then after about 5 mins is reporting unable to connect. :S
I did notice that it was trying upgrade and was at 37%, but none of the lights indicated that it was upgrading.
Yeah i tried turning spanning tree off as i was thinking the same that it was shutting the port down, but no joy. 😞
You don't get any indication of the lights during an upgrade, except during the reboot.
Something is going wrong during the upgrade. You'll need to open a case with support
Ah i thought it flashed green to say it was performing an upgrade.
I did manage to get it working previously with a Cisco 1GB copper SFP connected and that worked fine, now i'm just plugging back into port 1.
Will try again with an SFP and see if that makes any difference.
