  • Try a different device connected to the switch to see if same thing happens? 

    What is the brand and model of the ethernet adapter in the PC? 

    Be sure drivers are up to date for the ethernet adapter in the PC from the ethernet mfr.

    Check the user manual for LED behaviors.

    CAT6 UTP cabling is recommended.
