Hi all,
Sorry - put this in as a reply to another thread by accident. DOH!
Have been given a 3Com 3300 24-port switch (3C16980), but I'm getting all the port lights on except 2 - varies between port 1 and port 3 - both green and orange flashing, and all the unit lights on. Looking at the online documentation I presume this means it's knackered. I can't log onto it using the serial port, it's not registering on the LAN. I don't have a Matrix cable and we generally use Cisco switched here so no-one else will have one either. I have one other of these switches but it's a 12-port and want to swap it out for this one. Be a shame to have to bin it but I don't want to spend lots of money getting it fixed.
Any ideas?
Matt
