Yes, it's off. That eliminates A.

I assume you connected the tuner directly with a crossover cable here?  Were 
link lights as you'd expect when you plugged things in?  Do you have an 
alternate switch you could use?

Failing the switch/cabling issues above, are you sure these devices work?  Are

they can be configured for static IPs, but I'm not too familiar with them.  
Can they be reset to factory defaults?
