I have a wired home network. Modem: Arris Surfboard. Wireless router: ASUS RT-AC68W. Unmanned switch: TP LINK. Patch panel: Intellinet 12 port, UTP. ISP: Mediacom.
We recently moved to a new home and the ISP came out to hook up the internet connection. The wireless signal is fine and I can connect to the internet via both the 2.4 and 5 Ghz. However, I cannont connect to any of the wired connections unless that wired connection is vial the wireless router. If I plug my laptop, Roku, or PS4 into the wall jacks it cannot connect. The laptop indicated there is an unknown network and no internet connection. The Roku indicates it cannot connect to my local network. The PS4 indicates it cannot find a DNS. I did install the patch panel myself and everything looks fine connection-wise. There were a couple keystones I ended up replacing due to there being a couple loose wires. I dont doubt the problem could very well be poorly terminated cables. However, it just seems odd that it would be every connection except the one the wireless router is plugged into. Looking for any advice. Thank you
