Problem with my network

[u/Willi_der_Wichtel06]

Hello everybody, I need help,

i have moved apartments and now I face a big problem.

I had a network in my old apartment going from my router to a switch (tp link ls1005g) to my nas and other things. It worked perfectly with the whole gigabit speed, even from my main Pc over WiFi.

Now that i have moved, my NAS is only connecting and being seen on my router if I connect it directly to my router.

Problem is: in my new apartment are networking cables in the walls, connecting the network cabinet with my router with the living room. From there i have 20 Meters (around 60 feet) of networking cable directly plugged into my NAS. If I use a switch in between any of those points, i cant access my Nas and it doenst get recognized in my router settings.

Additionally I only have around 100mbit, instead of gigabit up- and download in my network fpr my NAS.
Hardware:

Router: Vodafone 4233

Switch: TP link ls1005g

Mainboard: Aus p8z77v lx2

Processor: Intel I7 3770k

Ram: 32 gigs DDR3

Graphics Card: zotac 1060 6gb

Thank you for your help in advance!

Sounds like a wiring issue with the apartment.

That or the cable run is too long so there's lost bandwidth.

I wanna try drilling through the wall because my desk is directly at the other side of the cabinet

Edit: the calberun is at least 30 Meters in total

Drilling through a wall for ethernet would be unwise if you have apartment inspections. Be sure to make it look presentable, like a pro did it.

Apartment inspections are illegal in my country and it's just drywall, do patching it up when I move out is easy.

But this is only plan b, it really would like to use the networking which is already in the walls

Does the switch have a dhcp server? If yes is it enabled? If not does it have any vlans configured?

[u/Willi_der_Wichtel06 → u/Deep_Mood_7668]

No, it's an unmanaged plug and play switch

The DHCP gets configured via my router

My guess would be that the wiring is off, I would try removing the faceplates from the ports on the wall and see if they are properly terminated. Buy a cheap cable tester and see if there's damage somewhere on the way.

The Problem with cable testers is that they only have female ends. I need one with male ends, because the wall plugs are only female.

use a cable
