hin a building, additional switches in- between are an option, maybe with PoIP. But from building to building: always fibre optic cable. It also eventually may turn out to be cheaper becasue you need only one kind of switches and can skip the installation of (expensive and often useless) ground arresters.

better install Debian Stretch from scratch. This may save time instead of trying to figure out what is wrong, fixing and following the upgrade-path further. You might want to try a live-DVD (put on a USB-stick) first but then don't install from the live-os but use netinstall instead. Booting the live-os will give you the opportunity to save data and config files before starting the install from scratch. All the best Eike -- Eike Lantzsch ZP6CGE
