Network socket malfunction?

The ports in the rooms are barely defect. In most cases there is a problem with your cable or computer.

If the checklist below shows that there can be a defect port we will send a technician. The technician will not look at your computer it is therefore really important to complete the checklist. If there is a plug socket with 2 ports try both of them. In most cases it is the left one.
