Good day everyone,
Sorry for jumping right into this forum with a question... I'm simply desperate as this has been the case for a month.
My main router is in the ground floor while my personal room is on the 3F (in here, it's GF -> 2F -> 3F). And so, I have made a lan wire (is this the correct term?) to go from GF to 3F. Each end has an RJ45 plug in it.
I have a Network Cable Tester and when I ran both ends, both ends confirm that each wire is working (each shows a GREEN... each wire = the 8 wires inside the lan wire with diff colors). However, when I connect this to any router (have tried two) or directly to a laptop that has a slot, it says there is a connection but no internet.
What might be wrong? The internet on the ground floor is working fine. There is no tears on the wire either when I check it. Would appreciate very much any help!
If this helps, each floor is approximately 12 feet and since I put this on top of 3F, inside the room and then down, the wire is now like 45 - 50 feet long.
