    Hello, for the past couple weeks, I've been trying to use my ethernet and it is not connecting, the port on my pc is constantly glowing orange and I have tried to restart my pc, use windows offline scan thought it was a virus, and even turned off the router a couple of times, still not connecting, is there any solution for this?

  2. Ethernet cable not working.

    You need to solve your problem one step at a time, e.g. like so:

    • Connect your CAT5 cable directly to your router. If it does not work, replace the cable.
    • Connect the cable to your TP-Link wall plug. If it does not work, reconfigure or replace the wall plug.

    Ethernet cable settings

    Hi Campbell,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Please reply to the follow questions to get a better understanding on the issue:

    • What is the model number of your laptop?
    • Do you have a yellow exclamation on the network icon after connecting the cat 7 cable?

    However, you can follow the troubleshooting steps from
    Fix network connection issues in Windows
    .

    Also, I suggest you to check the laptop manual or laptop manufacturer to know whether the Ethernet port of your laptop supports cat 7 cable.

    Hope it helps.

    Ethernet Cable Not Working

    My ethernet cable is not working even when plugged in. It works fine with other laptops but not with mine.

    I'm fairly sure this has something to do with something installed or some software related issue. Because my ethernet worked (but static) when I uninstalled all my network driver and proceeded to restart but it suddenly went gone again.

    So here is the list of things I already done:

    • Network reset thru the Settings Menu
    • Network reset thru the CMD (netsh winsock, ipconfig /, etc.)
    • Troubleshoot settings
    • Reset my laptop thru "Reset this PC"
    • Check for Windows Update
    • Use the "MyAsus" app to check for any error
    • Unchecked everything in the msconfig (excluding MS Services ofc)
    My wifi works fine. But I play FPS games, so I rely heavily on stability and speed of ethernet cables.

    Any help?
