Check the cable terminations at both ends, ensuring they are correctly wired. Verify the network cable is not damaged and test with a known working cable. Ensure the network device is powered on and configured correctly.
Check the network cable for any bends or damage that could affect performance. Ensure the connected devices support the Cat5e standard. Test the connection with a different cable and device to rule out hardware issues.
