TheDucks Posted Saturday at 11:40 PM Share Posted Saturday at 11:40 PM As Jim mentioned: modern devices have Auto-xover. That adapter is for when neither can flip. (I did have a rare case where the fought each other and having the adapter settled the race) With the cable between the Laptop and the Pixielink. Are the Link lights (commonly Green) ON at both ends. Those indicate they see the WIRED (layer 1) connection from the other end. If both, then it is just an static IP issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
