Question connecting pc to switch doesent work

[pete9022]

if i take a lan cable that goes from my router and plug it into my pc it works fine but if i take the same cable and put it into a networking switch and take a second cable from the switch and plug it into my pc it doesent work

here's the twist it´s not because the switch doesent work because all other devices that are pluged in works on it (tv ps4 xbox one)

note ive already tried setting a static ip and setting a dns for ipv4

What u say is impossible.

When u plug in to the switch, do you see a LINK light? it signals a successful layer-2 handshake.

U should not muck with IP, DNS, all clients should be using dynamic. Disable IPV6.

router -> PC works?
router -> switch -> PC fails?

Either a bad cable or a bad switch.

yes theres a signal going through

ive checked the cable with a ps4 that works

the swtich is fine since it works with tv ps4 and xbox

->ps4 works
router -> switch ->tv works
-> xbox works
-> pc not working
