The five computers with three network jacks are connected to a hallway switch.

The second switch is to be installed in a room which has four network ports, one of which is used to connect the switch to a wall jack.

While configuring, computers connected to the wall jacks work fine, whereas computers connected to the room’s switch are not able to connect to the established network.

To find:The way to diagnose the problem, and the next step that Linda should take after a failed attempt at connecting the computers to the network ports.

Solution:

To diagnose Linda’s failed attempt at installation, and to configure the network while installing with the computer, the following measures should be attempted:

Try to test the non-working computer by connecting it with the wall jack. If it works, then there is a problem with the switch, or with the wall jack to which the switch was connected.

To overcome the above-stated problem:

Try installing the switch on a good jack or replace the switch’s cable. If the issue persists, replace the switch itself.
