I am assuming that you are plugging the ethernet cable from your router to the Optiplex for testing and that works. If that is the case then it is most likely an issue with the run.

 

Do you have any additional runs in the house? If so try testing with another wall port.

Can you figure out what port on your router (or switch) that the wall port is connecting to? If so try switching it to another open port on your router.
