This is a cross over cable yes?

Sounds like you need a new Ethernet cable. One reason some cables don't seat is because the little nubbin on the cable connector is either missing or of an odd size. And as to whether it's a crossover cable or not depends on whether you're going through a router or direct to the computer. Consult your manual for which you need. And make sure you're using a proper Ethernet cable and not a cheapy phone system cable.
