Layout of Network:

Home setup and layout. Frontier Fios (50Mbps down and 20Mbps up). Box is outside in the backyard wired
with a 50ft cat 7 cable to an Asus switch inside the home. A 25ft cat 7 then runs to a TP-Link ARCHER C9 router providing wireless for the back of the home. Another 100ft cat runs to the front of the home to another TP-Link ARCHER C9 router providing wireless Internet for the front of the home.

Home size totals 3000sqft.



Problem:

Computer with issue is directly connected to the switch via 3ft Ethernet cable and is the home media PC for the family room. PC was built a year ago by me.



Attempts Tried:

Motherboard (GA-F2A68HM-H (rev. 1.1)):

Things tried (in order):

• Disabled the port, re-enabled the port, troubleshooted the port, uninstalled the port, reinstalled the port.
  
• Plugged Ethernet into different port on the switch.
• Tried another Ethernet cable.
  
• Purchased Ethernet-port network adapter TP-Link Model TG-3468 (V2):

• Installed drivers for it from the link above.

Same-exact-problem.

• Reinstalled Windows 7 Home x64bit.

Installed driver for motherboard Ethernet port and driver for the network card. Same problem still remains for both ports.


It's 2 days later. I want to donate this PC to Earth's orbit.....

This topic is old but I thought I'd come back and state the solution I found:

Switch was partially failed. I moved the router
that was closer to take its place. So far so good (a
little over a month later since posting here). I've
had a previous older model Asus switch fail on me
before.

Noticeable brain fart on my part... lol!
