Also, spoof your NIC MAC and reboot modem. That can sometimes cause this

like i said try applying some pressure i had one like this last week it would light up but would not detect.

try to open the clip and line it up and then put some pressure on it on top of where the spring is with ur finger and release the clip and then hit detect.

otherwise might need a new clip
