Netgear FS116 Cisco Modem Router
1 TopicNetgear FS116 Switch not connecting
Hi All; Tonight i traded in my older modem (ISP provided) which was connected to a D-Link router then to the Netgear FS116 switch. The new modem/router replaces both those and is a Cisco DPC3848V. I can connect directly to the Cisco for internet and its WiFi also works fine. Problem is that I cannot connect from the Cisco through the Netgear switch box and up to my ethernet connected desktop in another room. Same thing with my laptop when i connect via another ethernet conection. The Netgear just doesnt seem to let it through. Tech help from the ISP worked with me for a while determining no issue with theor Cisco modem/router and this post is testament to that but now my household wired network is not functioning. Any suggestions from the the kind and smart folks here would be very much appreciated before I have to un-do the whole thing with my ISP. Many thanks BretSolved14KViews0likes8Comments
