Usually if the ethernet is lighting up amber, it indicates a 10/100mbps connection and not a gigabit connection

Thank you for responding. Yes I went directly in with several short run cables. 2 to 5 foot long.

when you hardwire in a pc/laptop to the router, what shows up in the logs?

I've plugged in a PC, a Switch and a bridged router. Nothing shows up. nothing in any LAN port is showing. The only thing that will light up is the orange light when the switch is plugged in. I'm assuming that means power but no green would mean no data transferring out.
