Change the DNS servers that are configured on your Ethernet interface, use the router's own IP instead just like Wifi does, see if it makes a difference.

I tried to change DNS with router default DNS.Anyway nothing happened , this is what iam getting from router.Ethernet is connected it shows correct socket the connection is stable.So what i think is everything works fine and there is nothing to worry about.

Ethernet


Internet: 100Mbps full duplex


LAN1: Unplugged


LAN2: Unplugged


LAN3: Unplugged


LAN4: 100Mbps full duplex

Focus on the laptop, not the router. If the laptop is able to obtain a DHCP IP lease then it means the network part is working. Next step is to try pinging the router. If you can ping the router but still are not able to browse the web, then this is most likely a DNS issue, seeing how you have a different DNS on your Ethernet versus your Wifi. Did you accidentally configure two static DNS on the laptop's Ethernet interface?

These are manual settings, the thing is when i switch off wi-fi i don't have access to router - it's like my hub don't work.And i think this is my main issue...

And when i run diagnose it says "Can't reach default gateway".And asks to restart the Ethernet network adapter (which in my case is the hub).Just to mention when i tried the hub on normal PC it was working normally.So it must be a laptop issue and iam not sure if it's even a issue or it's just the way it is...In order to having internet which comes from LAN cable from a router you need to have wi-fi on.
