TV not recognizing ethernet cable (that has worked for ages)

My Samsung TV has just stopped recognizing the ethernet cable that has been connecting it for the last 2 years.   When I try to use smart features it tells me "The TV is not connected to the internet".  When I run network diagnostics it tells me that there is no ethernet cable.

- The software is up to date

- I have checked the cable/ethernet connection by using it with a laptop - it works!

- I have reset the TV to factory setting.  Now when I try to set up a wired ethernet connection it just sits there telling me to connect an ethernet cable (which I have)

Just to re-iterate, this cable has worked just fine for approx 2 years.  Any ideas gratefully received.  Thanks

Just try a different ethernet cable. If it still doesn't work, then you can start troubleshooting the TV itself. It may work with the laptop, but that's not a 100% perfect test.
