New pc hardwired has ip address but not connected to internet AX1750
Just recently bought a new Win 11 pc. It replaced another Win 10 pc that died. Used the same lan cable but the new pc shows it’s connected but no internet. WiFi works but I want to use ethernet so I disabled WiFi. When I go into the AX1750 screen, setup as extender, the pc shows up under wired connected devices, same ip as cmd/ipconfig. I have other devices connected hard wired to the 1750. Tried connecting directly to the 1750 (originally this and other devices connected to 1750 via a 5 switch Netgear port) with no change. Changed the connections around no change. Even took the pc downstairs and connected directly into the modem with the same lan cable and it worked fine with internet access, same ip address. Took it back upstairs and hooked back up, issue showed back up.
Does anyone have any ideas? I’m beyond stumped.

I’m beyond stumped.With your computer connected with your Ethernet cable, go in to Windows Settings -> Network & Internet -> Status and check to see if your network profile is set to Public. If yes, go to properties and change it to Private. Back out of your settings and Restart your computer.

Go to Windows Settings -> System -> Troubleshoot -> Other Troubleshooters and run Network & Internet.
AX1750 is not a definitive model number for a device. It could be a couple of different devices. Look for a model number on the label. What is the model number? Do the LEDs indicate the device you are connecting the Ethernet cable to has internet service? Your Wi-Fi could be connecting to some other source.
