I'd try different devices and ports on the router to see if its an issue with just that device or the port.
Plus try different cables. Try a decent quality cat 6 cable and not the cat 8.
Whats the supported connection rate of the ethernet adapter on you PC? Older adapters only supported 100Mpbs. Newer adapters support 1000Mpbs.
