I was able to connect a laptop to the router via the same router port using the same cable. When trying this on the tower the eth port lights on the tower come on but it doesn't show up in the router page or get assigned an IP. Any idea what I can try?

What would I be looking to fix?

I had tried that as well and same result, no IP assigned when I checked ifconfig eth0.

Hi all, I have had my tower up and running for quite a while, recently I moved house and set up a new network (new modem/router - TP Link Archer VR2100). Previously I had a static IP configured. When I plugged my tower into the network and tried to connect I had no luck. I changed the network cfg to the following: USE_DHCP=yes IPADDR= NETMASK= GATEWAY= After a reboot no IP was being assigned to the tower. The tower is the only device physically connected to the router, when I go into the router page it is showing there are no wired clients. I have tried a number of cables that have all been shown to be working. I'm lost as to why the router is not detecting the tower as a wired client. Any help would be really appreciated. tower-diagnostics-20220504-1302.zip
