AX 1800 not detecting WAN connection (no lights on modem)
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
After working for a day, the router has decided to stop detecting my modem's WAN cable. The modem lights for the connection won't pop up when I plug it in, but when I plug my PC directly into the modem it works just fine. When I plug the cable in, it allows me to pull up the TPLink setup page to manage the router, but doesn't actually transmit internet.
Things I've tried over the last day:
Reseting my computer/modem/router
Changing the dynamic ISP to a static ISP
Changing internet speed to 1,000 Mbps from the router page
Changing the DNS address to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, respectively
Changing the mode off of and back to "bridge" from the router page
Changing out at least 4 LAN cables, all of which are the proper type
Both updating and rolling back the firmware (currently on 1.1.1)
Cloning the MAC address.
I'm really reaching my wits end on this one guys. My auto detection IP settings are all at 0.0.0.0
