I have a 10/100 n asus router connected to a 5 port unmanaged gigabit switch. I have successfully used all 5 ports on the switch except a weird issue is happening now. My last connection on the 5 port switch does not give signal. The other 4 connections are good and moving the working ones around ports work fine too. So, I believe all 5 ports work fine.
When that same cat6 cord which gets no signal off of the 5 port switch is connected to the router lan port directly, I get full signal.
I want all cables to start at the 5 port switch because it is gigabit. Now that one cat6 is 10/100.
That Cat6 goes to an 8 port unmanaged switch and that switch goes to a 5 port unmanaged switch. Those switches also appear to be working fine otherwise.
I have hooked that cat6 from 5 to 8 with nothing else connected and still get no signal.
Help, please. Makes no sense.
