Home network.
I am trying to get a Cisco switch connected to my wireless router. I attached laptop (static IP) to the switch (also static IP) via cable, same subnet, same gateway. I was able to connect to switch, configure it, give it a static IP, etc.
When I then connect the switch to the router, switch light for port blips, but then goes off. Tried multiple cables. It's not that.
The switch is talking to the router about something but then not connecting. Problem is, not sure what.
Not really sure where to start to diagnose. When through all the screens on the Cisco Switch config and everything looks good to me.
Other --unmanaged-- switches (multiple) connect to the router fine. This is the first managed switch I am adding to the network.
I've power cycled everything. Cannot seem to get it to work.
Any hints on what to try?
