I recently upgraded my internet to fibre. As such, I've decided to make some Ethernet runs and put everything into a rack. My other runs are fine, but my connection to my server isn't working. I originally thought the connections were off, but I've plugged other things into my keystone and they work fine. I'll plug it into my server and it won't connect at all. The ip wont let me connect nor will the name of the server. It goes CAT6a > Patch > POE Switch. Maybe the POE is messing with it but as I said everything else will connect. If I plug it back into my mesh network, it will connect just fine.

Do you have lights on your Ethernet port ?

 

Was the IP fixed on the server or provided by DHCP ?

Did the internet upgrade change the IP range of the DHCP ?

There are lights yes.

 

It was provided prior, but I tried messing with some settings to try to get it to work and changed it to static.

 

I dont believe so. Everything else is working fine.

I am not very good at the networking stuff.

If it was my system, I'd try delete or rename the network config files in the flashdrive and see if it solves the issue on reboot.
