VERY odd solution...

My mother who has no networking experience at all went to PC3 and switched around the Straight-Through cable... she got the end from the switch and put it in the PC and vice-versa

This then allowed PC3 and PC4 to connect to the network and the internet strangest solution ever?

Thanks for getting involved though :D!
