The connection is fine from the modem to the dell powerconnect 2016 and every computer states that it is connected but cannot get onto the internet. A bad storm knocked out the power and ever since it has rebooted none of the computers has yet to connect to the internet.
This is very good suggestion. But where and how to set the DHCP & DNS ? Thanks

In order to get to the Internet, a computer must have proper IP connectivity. Lets start by troubleshooting IP connectivity in your office and see where the breakdown is. Open a command prompt on a machine. This can be done by going to Start ->
SOURCE: Dell Powerconnect 2016 All leds are on, solid no blinking.
Had same problem with my Dell Pwoerconnect 2016, power it on and all LEDs light up but nothing works.
The problem was traced to one or both output capacitors ( 10v 680uf ) on the ( tiny ) power supply.
Capacitor symptoms include bulging or rounded tops instead of flat like new one and the rubber plug in base of capacitor protruding.
Capacitors need to be replaced.
I have successfully replaced with 10v 1000uf and 10v 1200uf, both Rubycon and Sanyo brands.
Power to the switch board is now restored and the switch is able to function just fine.
Give it a go and see if it works for your Powerconnect.
