Well I was online earlier today and playing Runescape,when suddenly my hard wired desktop's network frozen up and disconnected. This isn't normal for my computer so I reboot and when it came back up I noticed my computer was in a loop of identifying the network and then saying there is no network connection. After that I have tried tried two Ethernet cables on the desktop and neither of those worked. So that got me curious if the cables were bad. I tried the cables on my laptop which both worked perfectly.
Other things I have tried:
Powered down the PC with the power cable disconnected and the switch off for 20 mins.
I have looked at the adapter settings and from what I can tell everything as it should be. I have looked on the router and it recognizes both my laptop and my PS4 that I have hard wired into the router as well.
It is a Windows 7 desktop and is about 5 years old. Mostly use it for a few different games and random things on the internet like Facebook and Youtube at times.
I am kind of at a loss and would greatly appreciate any guidance anyone is willing to give.
Thank you in advance!
