Would i need to make another home network? I wiped my hard drive today and everything was working perfect before.

When conecting via Ethernet, your computer has no way of detecting the device on the other side of the cable. All it can detect is that it is able to send and recieve data. It has no way of detecting what sent or recieved that data.
If you have just reinstalled your computer, you may need some driver software for your Ethernet socket. Try going to the support section of the manufacturer's website and download and install any drivers listed for your computer there.
