Hi,
I am having problems setting up my home network. Moved into a new house and ran CAT6 throughout the house, all lading to a patch panel in the basement. Patch panel connects to 24 port switch (unmanaged). I have cable connected to the modem, ethernet from modem to Netgear WNDR3700 Router, Ethernet from router to switch.
When I do this, i do not get the default 192.168.1.1 from my router...but I do have an internet connection (wired). When I connect the router directly to the switch and the modem directly to the switch I get no internet but my default router IP is back.
Both these options are problems and I need help. I have two computers, VOIP and a media player I need to work through the network as well as the wireless on the router working.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you in advance.
