Hello All,
I have a very odd thing going on with one of the PCs on my wired network.
My cable modem has 4 ports. One of those PORT1 goes directly to a PC. Lets call it PC1.
When I connect PC1 with that line, it shows no network connection.
If I put a different PC on that line, lets call it PC2, it connects w/ no issues.
If I take PC1 and connect it to another port on the cable modem, it works fine.
If I put a HUB on PORT1 - then connect PC1 to the HUB, it connects fine. if I put PORT1 directly back into PC1 - no network connection.
I have tried 2 other laptops wired directly on port 1 as well (testing all of them w/ the same network cable).
I have even replaced both connectors on the cable to see if that was an issue.
Anyone have any ideas WTH could be going on?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
