You have LAN cable from the router to the PC
You say you have LAN cable on the "other" side of the router (LAN cable TO router) - what is the other end of this cable connected to?
Who is your internet provider? BT? Sky? Someone else?0 -
Guessing... the lan cable to router needs to be set up as LAN port rather than WAN port.
should be enough info here
Repeater mode for LAN port of AR750S-Ext? - Routers / hardware - GL.iNet (gl-inet.com)
"On the slate interface go to more settings/advanced, and reenter the password. now go to network interfaces. Select WAN in the blue text at the top of this page, then physical settings that is down the page a few lines. Click bridge interfaces and under interface select something like VLAN eth0.1 (lan)"0
