So I had been advised that one of the workstations in our office was experiencing some problems regarding internet. It had been spotty all day and reported just not working when attempting any Zoom meetings. The setup for this workstation is from the wall jack to a dead switch into a laptop.
I did a speed test directly from the wall into a laptop and download seems to be fine, but upload is acting strange. Sometimes it will report speed sometimes sit at 0 until canceled. I ran maybe 30 tests and it was a continuous issue. I suppose it could be a firewall problem, but wouldn't that be 100% not allowing upload to go through? I'm wondering if the hardware in the wall is bad. I used 2 separate cables I know work. No lights on the wall to give any indication if it is bad, switch lights don't report any issues when used. Any ideas?
Thanks,
West.
