Ethernet RJ45 Power Strip

Solved

Hello,

I bought a 5-port RJ45 Ethernet power strip several months ago:
https://www.conrad.fr/p/switch-reseau-tp-link-tl-sg105-5-ports-1-gbs-994403

Everything was working perfectly until now; I went on vacation and when I came back, it stopped working...

The problem is that when I make the usual connections, only the power light is on while the Ethernet cables are working perfectly...

I hope you can help me resolve my issue, and thank you in advance to those who try.

    Hi,
    it's not called an Ethernet power strip, but an Ethernet switch.
    As for the rest,
    with this kind of device, there isn't much to do; either the connection works (indicator lights for each port) or it doesn't.
    So if it's under warranty, it's a seller exchange.
    If not, it's buy a new one.

    and ... There you go!

      I called it a power strip because that’s what was written on the case...
      It’s weird though, after not even 2 months it doesn’t work anymore even though I haven’t done anything?
      Thanks for responding, I’m going to try to fix it myself now but oh well.

        How do you want to fix it yourself?
        Power strip written on the case?
        I see 5 ports gigabit switch ....
        Are you talking about the link you posted?

      Well, I'll take it apart and poke around the board to see if there are any damaged components.

      It's just a different brand, but it's the same system; that's why it was labeled as a power strip.

        What exactly is the model?
