Hello,
I can't install my Freebox Revolution fiber on my Michaud lb218 communication panel in order to have Internet in every room via the Ethernet sockets. The TV box works well, as does my upstairs router via the Ethernet sockets, but the other sockets do not work. Do you have a solution for the connection?

In my opinion, you should place your router next to this patch panel and connect it to it. Your panel is not a router, but just a patch panel.
You need to connect the RJ45 sockets from the panel to the router with short RJ45 cables, and an RJ45 output from the box connected to the router.

My box is in the garage next to the panel and the wifi router is upstairs. What is surprising is that when I plug the router in the bedroom, it works but not the smart TV.
To be clearer, for example in a room I can't get Internet on my smart TV through the Ethernet socket. I have connected my box to the communication panel via my RJ45 cable to the correct socket corresponding to the room.
Each outlet in the panel must be connected to the router so that all Ethernet sockets in the rooms can be used. Basically, if you have 6 Ethernet sockets distributed in each room, you need to find the incoming connections for these sockets in your panel, and then just connect them to the router. For example: 6 incoming connections = 6 small RJ45 cables between the panel and the router.
Thank you for your feedback. Regarding your example, I am using fiber. I tried in this diagram, but it doesn’t work. On the table, I have an ADSL filter in blue; I positioned myself on it, but nothing.
No, but with fiber, the ADSL filter is useless; what matters is what's below the box.
You should first do a visual check of the cabling of your wall outlets and patch panels that aren’t working, and if that’s not enough to identify defects, invest in a small RJ45 cable tester to check everything.

OK,
where are the 3 cables that we see in the patch panel going?
the one at the top looks like a normal ethernet cable, at the bottom on the right there is a small one that looks like a telephone cable, is it for a phone?
the other one next to it, where does it go, is it for the TV box?
do you need other cables like the one at the top between the box and the patch panel?

Indeed, the cable from the top is for my Wi-Fi router on the first floor, the small RJ11 cable is for the phone in the entrance, and the third RJ45 cable is for the TV box in the living room. My problem is that I have 2 outputs left from my box; as soon as I connect them to the patch panel, the outlets do not work. For example, in the picture, there is an outlet next to my TV box, which is a second outlet in my living room; it is connected to my TV because it is a smart TV, but it doesn't work. On the other hand, when I swap the outlets, it works.
I will make him another drawing; it's not complicated to understand that there needs to be one RJ45 cable per outlet line between the router and the patch panel. The patch panel is used to distribute the network to the outlets in each room of the apartment. 6 outlets = 6 RJ45 cables between the router and the patch panel.
