      RBR850 > Negear GS105E switch > RBS850 \ Apart from RBS850, the said switch connected a PC and HP M177fw Printer

        You are not helping us help you with vague language "Didn't work"

         

        Perhaps you can describe cables... what kind are they?  How long are they?  Did you put the ends on or were they commercially purchased?

         

        What (if any) troubleshooting steps you may have taken and the results?

         

        Does a laptop or desktop connect when plugged directly into the router?

         

        Does the satellite connect wirelessly when within range?

         

        Is there power to the router?

         

        Is there power to the satellite(s)?

         

        What colors are showing on the sattelite(s)?
