NightHawk MR60 router won't sync to MS60 satellite via ethernet cable
My new Nighthawk MR60 router desk syncs to both MS60 satellites wirelessly just fine. I moved one satellite wireless to the other end of the house and it sync'd correctly. I moved the other satellite to my backyard shop to connect back to the router with ethernet cable (125'). Won't sync. I brought the remote satellite back to the desk and connected short, extender ethernet cable and router and satellite sync'd. Cable tester passed the shop cable with an 'S' over the number 7 wire (shielded). The short cable (that sync'd) tested with the number 1 and 2 wires as open with the others good. I tested the shop cable with short extender cables on both ends and passed with all 8 wires. I moved the satellite back to the shop, connected with extender on each end of shop cable and no sync. I've ran out of things to try. Any ideas??

replace the ends on the cable. A cable tester only says there's a connection. Not the quality of it. So it'll pass much easier versus having to pass data through it.
and you're talking 125 feet and not meters? Is that correct?
