Lan Port Not Working

[Harrisonr9]

Hello, 

I built a gaming pc last week, and everything is working, all the drivers are installed and the BIOs is updated. I do not have a wifi card so I have been using ethernet this whole time. It has been working until today. I plug in a lan cable and it says nothing is connected, but the internet will pop up. Here’s the weird part though. I have a router that is mounted on the wall, and it’s weird because i can’t take it off, it’s wifi that is provided by my apartment complex that I switched to yesterday. The wifi worked all yesterday, but stopped today. Now, when i connect a lan cable to the router and then plug it into my PC it turns the router off. Not sure what is going on and I have tried everything. Can anyone help?

Easy things first - try another cable. If that fails, try same port, same cable with another device, if that is an option.

Check if the LAN Port on the router isn't switched off in its UI.
