built my first pc the other day and I installed the LAN driver that came on the asus motherboard disk, but when I plug in the cable to the wall port it doesn't work, when I click in device manager it says the cable is fine, so what should I do?

It didn't in one of the rooms, so I checked the router and found one that was connected, and side note (there are 12 cables connected to a net gear 16 port gigabit switch and only four have green lights) and I connected it to one that was plugged in but without a green light

Well...it seems you have house wiring issues.
Someone (you) is going to have to trace and verify all the wiring to see what is going on.

For instance:
Does this wall port go all the way back to the switch or patch panel? You're the only one who can determine that.
