E-MSM430 pings only behind a random basic switch
Hi everyone,
First of all hardware used:
Wifi Hotspot: HP E-MSM430
ZyXEL PoE-12
PoE injector: http://us.zyxel.com/products/details.aspx?pc1indexflag=20040520161143&categorygroupno=e3ac7c58-dccb-4632-9e5e-cae99f62b40c
Dell switch Powerconnect 2724 unmanaged mode
We use a PoE injector because our switches don't have the PoE feature. Here is what i did
- Basic configuration of the E-MSM430 with static IP/subnet mask/gateway/DNS assigned
In this case the hotspot responds to ping and works just fine
Powerconnect 2724 =====> wall plug =====> basic switch =====> H-MSM430
In these cases no network activity, no led activation on the powerconnect 2724
Powerconnect 2724 =====> wall plug =====> H-MSM430
Powerconnect 2724 =====> H-MSM430
Hope i was clear enough, please feel free to add a comment if i forgot something to make this work
Regards,
D.

Re: E-MSM430 pings only behind a random basic switch
This should NOT be the case in this decade, but it sounds like the old style ethernet ports which did not support auto mdi/mdix switching. In those days, if you went directly from one device to another, you had to use a crossover cable. Despite this being 2011, the fact that any old switch in between the two devices makes it work means I'd try a crossover cable, just in case that is somehow the problem.
The PoE injector should be invisible to this process, but it, in fact, might be the cause of the problem, too.

Re: E-MSM430 pings only behind a random basic switch
Thank you tschaps for your answer, and by the way the power injector connects this way
wall plug ====>(data)power injector(data+power)=====>E-MSM430
Tried with a crossover cable, just one, on data plug side of the injector and on data+power side. No changes. Maybe i should try with two crossover cables not certain it's gonna make any change but hey...
Maybe you're right the issue comes from the power injector...
