    "Default gateway is not available" error pops up from time to time only when I play an...


    As explained above, from time to time I get the "default gateway is not available" error. It happens less often now than it did in the past, but it still happens only when I play an online game, such as Fall Guys or CS:GO. I have found the probable cause of the error, being that the IP address keeps disappearing from the laptop and the network is still connected but has no Internet. When I try to use any other device connected to the Internet while the laptop has no Internet, the Internet works fine on that device, but not on the laptop until I run the troubleshooter. Any help on how to fix the IP address disappearing? I have a Lenovo Legion Y720 laptop, if that helps.

    :)

    "Default gateway is not available" error pops up every time I play an online game.

    Whenever I play an online game, whether it be CS:GO, Valorant, or other online games like that, after a fair amount of time with no problems, I am booted from the game because of connection issues. When I check my Internet, the settings say that I am connected
    but there is no Internet. Every other device connected to the Internet works fine except the PC. When I run the troubleshooter, it always returns with "Default gateway is not available" and the Internet is fine afterwards. Then, when I try to play again, the
    same thing happens after a while. Any help?

    Thanks for your suggestion. The connection started playing up again and I followed your instructions. This is what happened:

    Looks like a problem with the connection between the computer and the router?

    Default Gateway not available

    The "default gateway not available error" occurs frequently when connected to my ISP's modem. This causes the internet connection to drop frequently and I have to run the troubleshooter to restore connection. I have gone through
    all of the steps in the article

    Fix network connection issues in Windows

    The problem persists.
