Ive been using wireless recently and for some reason everytime a phonecall comes in, my internet becomes extremely choppy. After the phonecall ends, it clears up. I tried fixing this problem by buying a 50' Ethernet Cable (my computer is 1 room away from my router)
Now when i plug my ethernet cable into the jack on the back of my computer, it shows a red light. And it is unable to communicate with my router even though it is plugged in. How should i fix this? Do i need to buy an Ethernet Adapter PC slot? I didnt have to use one on my main computer next to the router so I thought i could just plug it straight in the slot.
On a side note, anyone may know why my internet slows down when i receive phone calls? Both lines are run by filters...
