What changed?  Concentrate there ...

Is this the same switch used in the old location ?

If not, that might be the problem, either set the switch to match the 
Alphas, or, set the Alphas to match the switch.

I'm guessing there is a good chance that the cables are new.  If so, try 
a replacement cable, replacing the in place cables one at a time and test.

You got a network problem, don't blame the computers ....
