When I switched broadband provider to Now I simply unplugged the ethernet from the old router and plugged into the NowTV Hub 2 and it doesn't work. The cable goes to an Ethernet switch with a variety of devices none of which works. Note everything on wireless works fine, and I can access the router config over wireless. To get the ethernet working I have tried:
- Checking the link state lights on both ends of the cable - they are all on and flashing as I'd expect on both NowTV hub 2 and ethernet switch
- Switching the NowTV Hub 2 from Gigabit to Fast ethernet (even though my switch is gig)
- Manually entering a correct IP address in one end device (making sure it doesn't clash with any wireless device IP addresses) - when I do this, I can't even ping the router from that device over ethernet (i.e. from device to switch to router)
I haven't tried connecting a device directly to the hub as that won't help me even if it does work - the Ethernet switch is in the next room. I can't use wireless only as some devices don't have wifi.
Help greatly appreciated
