if the lights don't come on, try different ports and a different cable

this is just a test, don't leave connected

if still no workey, trash

No lights on with the loop back trick. Tried different cables and different ports.

Be sure to do that 3 times.

Are you sure the ethernet NIC is enabled on your machine?

yes, jfc i hate u aba lol, this is multiple devices

anyways, i JUST swapped out the old modem/router for the new modem and it's hardwired and working without any issues.

Guess i'll try to get the old unit warrantied. Didn't feel like waiting a month to get it back in the mail tho so bought the new stuff. We'll see how that process goes

Glad it's fixed, super weird issue.

I'd give it a factory reset and firmware update.

Or try to see if you can flash it with DD-WRT.

bad ground on the cable side can fry the ports and leave wifi working
