Second device GS305 does not work

I just installed a Netgear GS305 switch to provide additional Ethernet service to two devices in a room . The first device plugged in works as expected , the second device does not, no quick blinking LED just an occasional slow flash LED every 5 or 6 seconds . . I have used different cables , different ports but still does not work . Any ideas on what I may need to configure to get addition ports to work ?

    Does it work if you connect it directly to your router? 

    What router do you have?
