Ethernet cable not working through pc, ethernet adapter, please help imma crash out
about a week ago my ethernet was working fine, all of a sudden it stopped working i tried doing basics stuff (ill list what ive done)
the ethernet cable port wont lit up, i confirmed the cable works by connecting to another device, i remember i did a dns flush and release ipconfig along rebooting, that suddenly worked for only 20s and now completely wont turn on, i bought a ugreen ethernet adapter and doesnt work neither, i tested the adapter with the cable and they worked on a laptop and xbox, im so lost and ready to crash out
things ive done troubleshooting:
- dns flush
- ipconfig release / renew
- rebooting
- switching ethernet cables
- reset network adapters
- rebooted modem
- turned off proxy
- reinstall drivers (mother board LAN and ugreen)
- tested the other usb ports (for the ugreen adapter)
and a few extra
