Cant get desktop to connect
Desktop wont connect to internet threw ethernet on the router. Ethier shows unidentified network or internet access it changes back and forth but no internet ether way. Can direct connect to modem and the desktop works great. Hooked a laptop to the router with a ethernet and it works so for some reason its only the one system. Shut everything off , unhooked all ethernets and let it sit and turned it all back on still nothin. Completely cleaned desktop back to a fresh install of windows 10. Installed ethernet drivers from a usb onto the desktop. Cant seem to figure it out myself.
