The default gateway is not functioning properly.
The default gateway is not functioning properly.
It's usual to have several network devices connected to a machine, such as Ethernet, WiFi, Bluetooth and maybe virtual adaptors for VPN or VirtualBox (if installed). Verify you're viewing the right device in the ipconfig output. Disconnecting media usually indicates the adapter isn't working, so if your link is active, the one you're using might be incorrect. With a standard home router set up, the default gateway at 192.168.1.1 will likely be the interface you're connecting to. Accessing the router's web interface can depend on whether it supports HTTPS or HTTP—test both options (adjust IP if needed). http://192.168.1.1 https://192.168.1.1 (note the warning about an invalid certificate, which is normal with self-signed certs).
