Double check your connections, and re-try. Perhaps one of the wires in your RJ-45 plugs is loose or something.

Did you wire it to be a crossover? If so, double check that the wire order is correct.

if you arnt using a hub, you need a crossover cable or it wont work.

do you have any lights?

try a different cable and/or try a known good connection to your set up.

Probably just not using a crossover cable.
