Isn’t Wi-Fi extender utilize your Wi-Fi signal to extend the signal, the network port on the extender to plug into laptop/pc ??

It means either the cable itself is bad or the switch itself is configured wrongly

I'm using TP Link easy smart switch https://www.tp-link.com/my/business-network...tl-sg1016de/v3/ it doesn't have any configuration.

Also I have cut and recrimping the rj45 crystal head same problem.

If I understood your first post, you only re-crimped one RJ45 head? If so, check that the other end is also T568B.
