WG3526-P poe issue

Post by mcollins4551 »

Hello. Just received my 3526 and configured poe via this article ( https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=10 ) but I cannot get it to work. The router works fine with the 12v adapter but when I try to plug the rj45 into the wan port, the yellow poe light flashes and i get no power to the router.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Which POE power supply are you using?

I'm using the 48v poe (https://thewirelesshaven.com/shop/power-adapter/p ... -1-5a-72w/) with a cat6 cable.

is there a manual for this poe to tell what the yellow flashing light means?

Thanks.

Also, I checked the voltage coming across the cat6 (blue/blue white and brown/brown white wires I believe) with my multimeter and get 58.

I don't think 48V is right. It should match the output listed on the injector.

I'm pretty sure the voltage up to maybe 55-60V may not blast the router, you would know if it did. lol! The LEDs would no longer come on.

Also, I've done this: Are you certain your not using a crossover ethernet cable? Crossover cables aren't really used much any more, but I have to ask.

Yes. I just purchased a new cat6 straight cable so the cable itself should be good.

Just received an email back from support and they’re sending me a another injector. So we’ll see if that’s the issue. Thx
