You know your post made me think.
Are you saying the cable connected to Router #1's LAN could respond differently when connected to a router than when connected to a laptop? It has juice on a laptop but the router isn't getting anything, it seems.
The cable connecting the two routers is 100' CAT7 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B084L6PHMM
that has been buried underground in a pvc pipe.
One end of it was accidently cut off and spliced back together.
After splicing it back together, I only get about 10mbps throughput even tough Router #1 puts out about 400mbps. But that's better than nothing. For me, it's fast enough to get stuff done.
I should point out this sharing of two routers USED TO WORK, although sometimes Router #2 would lose Internet connection, which I thought was due to IP conflict not cable problem.
Now, for some reason, I can't get anything of Router #2. But as I wrote cable does work when connected directly to laptop.
