You either have a problem with the cable, the ports or speed/duplex negotiation - try a known good cable, try a different port on the router, one that you can test as working with another device, if those don't work try connecting the access point to a switch or PC to verify if the port on the access point itself is functional - this last might require a cross over cable.
