One PC being blocked

Hi, I don;t know whether anyone can help? I have one PC in my house that I believe is being blocked. This happened after I did a test on setting up a wireless extender, after plugging my PC to this Wireless extender, and got it to work, then plug the PC back to the router, it stopped working, listed as cable unplugged, but when I plugged the same cable back to the extender, it's works fine. I tried plugging the same cable to another port in the router, and it worked at first, then after I unplugged the cable and plugged in back in, I'm getting the same issues, this feels like the router is blocking this PC, I don't know whether it's some form of security kicking in as this PC was previously plugged into the router just before the wireless extender test. I tried getting help from Sky support, but went round in circle and getting no where. Does anyone here have experienced anything similar and can shed some light on this? and how to deal with this?

Sounds more like faulty ports on the router or PC. Do other devices work via ethernet using that same cable?
