I've been trying to move my router from the basement to the main floor, connecting it through a length of cat 6 routed upstairs.
When I do this the router doesn't seem to connecting properly, wifi and ethernet both won't work connected to the router, however if I plug the router into the modem with the original cable back down stairs (6 inch cable, so no routing that one), it works fine.
I've put a ethernet switch where the router would be moved, and connected the router to the switch and switch to PC, and there's no issue with connection.
So I don't believe it's the cable, modem, or the router?
Any help would be appreciated
