Troubleshooting

No network connection

Check the cable connections at both ends and ensure they are securely inserted. Verify the wiring configuration (T568A or T568B) matches on both ends of the cable. Test the cable with a cable tester.

Slow network speed

Ensure that the network cable is CAT6 compliant. Check for any kinks or damage in the cable. Test the connection with another device to rule out the device as the issue.

Loose connection

Inspect the RJ45 connectors for any damage. If the connection feels loose, re-terminate the cable with a new RJ45 connector or replace the faceplate.
