Networking: Network cable unplugged / `ip link` shows NO-CARRIER state DOWN / Ethernet: Network cable unplugged
The network card sees no electrical link, so nothing above it (IP, DNS, browser) can work.
Networking: Two hosts on one LAN can't talk — subnet mask or network address mismatch
The hosts disagree about which addresses are local, so one tries to route traffic that should go straight across the LAN.
Networking: IPv4 address 169.254.x.x (Autoconfiguration / APIPA) — the PC couldn't get an address from DHCP
With no DHCP answer, the computer gave itself a link-local 169.254.x.x address, which only works on the local segment.
Networking: dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff via eth0: network 192.168.1.0/24: no free leases
The DHCP server has no unused addresses left in the scope.
Networking: Clients receive the wrong default gateway or DNS server — a rogue DHCP server (often a home router) answers first
A second DHCP server on the network is giving clients bad settings, so some machines have no internet or odd DNS.
Networking: `arp -n` shows (incomplete) / Destination Host Unreachable — no ARP reply from the next hop
The machine asked "who has this IP?" and nobody on the local network answered.
Networking: dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 ... No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.
The client broadcast a DHCP request and no server answered.
Networking: Windows: Default gateway is not available / Diagnose Connection Problems: DHCP not enabled
The PC can't reach its router, so it has no path out of the local network.
Two steps away (22)
connect: Network is unreachable (ENETUNREACH)
The host has no route to the destination network — no default gateway, interface down, or trying IPv6 without IPv6 connectivity.
Chrome: No internet — ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED (You are not connected to the internet)
Chrome sees no working network connection on the device, so it cannot load any page.
Networking: No Wi-Fi networks found — the Wi-Fi adapter is missing, disabled or its driver failed
The operating system doesn't see a working wireless adapter, so no networks can be listed.
Networking: ping — Destination Host Unreachable / Destination net unreachable (ICMP type 3)
A router (or your own PC) tells you it has no way to deliver the packet to that address.
Networking: VPN is connected but I can't reach the internal network — missing routes, split tunnel or overlapping subnets
The tunnel is up, but traffic for the office/VPC subnets isn't sent through it or comes back the wrong way.
Docker Desktop: WSL 2 installation is incomplete / WSL update required
Docker Desktop on Windows needs WSL 2 and its Linux kernel; they’re missing, outdated or disabled.
Networking: PING: transmit failed. General failure. / ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
The operating system could not even send the packet, so the problem is local (adapter, route or firewall), not the remote host.
Networking: Your Remote Desktop Services session has ended. Possibly the network connection was lost / Remote Desktop disconnected, error code 0x904
An established Remote Desktop session dropped because the network under it stalled or the session was reset.
Networking: Port forwarding configured but the port stays closed — carrier-grade NAT (CGNAT) or double NAT
Your router forwards the port correctly, but another NAT in front of it (your ISP or a second router) blocks inbound connections.
Networking: connect: Cannot assign requested address — ephemeral port range exhausted by TIME_WAIT connections
The machine ran out of local ports for new outgoing connections to the same destination.
HTTP 502 Bad Gateway
A proxy or gateway (Nginx, load balancer, CDN) got an invalid response — or no response — from the upstream server behind it.
HTTP 504 Gateway Timeout
A proxy or gateway waited too long for the upstream server to respond and gave up.
Error creating: pods is forbidden: violates PodSecurity "restricted:latest": allowPrivilegeEscalation != false ...
The namespace enforces a Pod Security Standard (baseline/restricted) and the pod spec breaks one of its rules.
Networking: Wi-Fi keeps disconnecting / signal -80 dBm / wlan0: deauthenticating by local choice (reason=3)
The wireless link is too weak or too noisy to hold, so the client drops and rejoins repeatedly.
Networking: Interface down — SFP transceiver Loss of Signal / no receive light
A fibre or SFP link is down because the transceiver receives no light.
Networking: wlan0: WPA: 4-way handshake failed - pre-shared key may be incorrect / WRONG_KEY
The Wi-Fi association started but key negotiation failed, almost always a wrong password.
Networking: %CDP-4-NATIVE_VLAN_MISMATCH / device on the wrong VLAN can't reach the gateway
A port or trunk carries a different VLAN than expected, so hosts silently land on the wrong network.
Networking: kernel: nf_conntrack: table full, dropping packet — new connections fail on a Linux firewall/NAT host
The connection-tracking table is full, so the kernel drops packets for any new connection.
Networking: kernel: nfs: server nas01 not responding, still trying / nfs: server nas01 OK
An NFS client can't get replies from the server, so processes using the mount hang in uninterruptible sleep.
Cloudflare-branded 502 Bad Gateway / 504 Gateway Timeout ("cloudflare" footer)
A plain-looking 502/504 page with “cloudflare” at the bottom comes from Cloudflare’s network itself (or an origin response it cou…
Networking: Server reachable from the internet but not from inside the LAN via its public IP — NAT loopback / hairpin NAT not working
Devices on your own network can't use the router's public address to reach a server that is also on that network.
Networking: Windows error 64: The specified network name is no longer available — SMB session dropped
A connection to a Windows file share was cut while in use.
