Internet box Lan connection to the disk station

Hello,

I have just replaced my old Swisscom Motorola router with the Internet box.

WiFi, Swisscom TV and a network printer (LAN) work perfectly.

Only communication with the Synology Diskstation doesn’t work.

If I plug the disk station directly into one of the 4 LAN ports of the Internet box, everything is fine. However, when I plug the disk station into the network socket in another room using the house cabling (approx. 11 years), the LAN indicator on the disk station does not light up once.

I tried various rooms and it also worked with the old router.

Does anyone have an idea?

The Internet box has 1GB connections, could that be a problem?

Do you have the additional switch in between?

Then one of the patch cables (on the distributor or in the installation to the NAS) is either defective or incorrectly assigned.

No, there is no switch in between.

Would that be better?

The cables should fit. I’ve tried various things.

As soon as I reconnect the “old” router it works again.

How could you try out the different LAN cables when wiring, assuming the installation goes from the Internet box via a distributor, or are the LAN cables directly from the Internet box into the individual rooms without an intermediate plug, I can’t imagine.

Can you post a photo of these connections in the individual rooms here in the community!

I put a switch between the router and the disk station, now it works.

Thanks for the support.
