A user is experiencing issues with network access on their PC. The PC shows it is connected to the network but cannot access any internal or external network resources. What is the most likely cause of this issue?
Outdated network drivers
Disabled network adapter
IP address conflict
Incorrect network settings
The most likely cause is incorrect network settings. These settings can include IP address, subnet mask, or default gateway settings that do not align with the network's configuration, leading to connectivity issues. An IP conflict arises when two devices on the same network are assigned the same IP address, which leads to network access issues for one or both devices. Outdated network drivers may only sometimes cause complete network access issues; they more commonly lead to poor network performance. A disabled network adapter would result in no network connection status rather than connectivity with no resource access.
