GS105Ev2 admin page works, but nothing else does

[gbeddow]

The GS105Ev2 I bought 5 or 6 years ago has been working fine until recently when the (single) video camera attached to it stopped working. The latter is getting PoE, but no communication.

The admin page on the GS105Ev2 works fine, but I notice inconsistent, "Mismatch" or other weird results for everything on the Cable Tester page - and I've tried several different cables. Also the "PWR" and "1" (up/link) lights are not lit; shouldn't they be? The "PoE" light *is* lit when the camera is plugged in.

Is the unit dead? Any other troubleshooting steps?

Thanks everyone for the respones. The web page for the GS105Ev2 does indeed work, but I discovered later that a different PoE switch was responsible for the problem. Sorry for the goose chase!

@gbeddow,

What is the current firmware version of your GS105Ev2?  If it is not yet updated, I advise you to update it to the latest version then check if the same problem will occur.  The latest GS105Ev2 firmware is v1.6.0.10.  You can download it here.

@gbeddow I'm a little bit confused - the mentioned GS105Ev2 isn't a PoE switch. Do we face a GS105PE 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet PD-Powered/PoE Pass-thru Plus Switch instead here? That's the only 5-port with PoE...
