If both the internal NIC and the USB connected NIC do not connect to that router, then why are you accusing everything else - not the router?
First thing - where the network cable connects to router and NIC is (traditionally) a light. What is that light both when connected and when connection is lost. What are those lights showing at both ends.
Same applies to the internal NIC. What does that light (and router light) show when connected to the router.
Router lights are either adjacent to where the ethernet cable connects. Or on the front panel. Disconnect an ethernet wire and the light should extinguish. Connect and the light should illuminate.
Computers at both ends can be completely fried. And still those lights should work if only the ports, wire, and connectors are OK. First thing first. Are the ports, connectors, and wire OK? And are they OK when communication is lost?
