I have just had a fibre access point installed in my home. My desktop PC has no problem connecting via ethernet to the ADSL network. When I remove this cable from the ADSL router and connect it to to the FIBRE access point, I get nothing. Other PC's, desktops and laptops in the household have no problem connecting to the fibre network, just my desktop. Any suggestions. I have disabled Kaspersky on startup but clearly there is something else stopping the connection being made.

Are you using the same Fiber port as one of the other devices? or is this a separate port? If you are using a separate port, try one of the ports that has a PC that is working.

There are no problems with any of the devices. I can connect to ADSL just fine. There are no unknown devices.

Right now, no one is connecting to fibre as I have not paid the subscription. Everyone is still connecting to the ADSL. The fibre is installed and just waiting for me to start a subscription, but I cannot keep both and as my computer is the main one and cannot connect, I'm not inclined to pay for a service I cannot use.
