Default Gateway Not Available Problem

Have no idea what that means.

You're not alone in that.

I'm not at all sure that a WINS server is necessary or even desirable. Unfortunately, I don't know how to disable it.

Run this and post results https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/wifi_i...tion_view.html

we are looking for any station close that may interfer with your signal and you signal strenght

Not the issue, It is only this computer that has the issue. Everything else on the network works fine!

I still think that your NIC identifying your router is a WINS server is the culprit.

Try ipconfig /all on the other computers and see if any of them identify your router as a WINS server. I'll bet they don't

Umm isnt that WINS setting interrupting with the DNS? No avail to check on my laptop atm but it seems weird to me.

Is this what you are referring to:
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 2605:a601:ab5d:a300::1
192.168.1.1
Primary WINS Server . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1
I do not understand any of that lingo or, how to interpret it.
