Connection failed to the default gateway.
Connection failed to the default gateway.
It continues to warn about not reaching the default gateway. I've tried all the methods on YouTube, but nothing works. I even purchased a new adapter, yet the issue persists. It only occurs on my PC, while other devices function normally.
You're connecting via Wi-Fi, right? If your phone is linked to the same router, why not simply pull its settings when it connects and tweak your Wi-Fi adapter manually? When you open the settings on your phone, navigate to Wi-Fi, and you should see the IP address listed—it usually shows something like x.x.x.1 as the gateway. For instance, if your phone displays 192.168.10.5, the gateway is typically .1 or .254, though it's common for it to be .1. You can then assign a static IP for your Wi-Fi adapter and set the default gateway to that value while keeping your own IP unknown.
I included the same gateway as my phone in my IPv4 settings. After a short while, it started working smoothly.
