0x80070035Windows

0x80070035: The network path was not found (System error 53)

Windows can’t reach the shared folder — name resolution, SMB settings, firewall or network discovery is preventing it.

PING: transmit failed. General failure.Networking

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.

nfs: server not responding, still tryingNetworking

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.

169.254.x.x self-assigned IP (DHCP failed)Networking

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.

Windows: Default gateway is not availableNetworking

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.

Connections hang on large transfers (PMTU black hole)Networking

Networking: SSH/HTTPS connects but hangs on large data — path MTU discovery black hole

Small packets pass but full-size ones vanish, so logins work and then transfers or page loads stall.

Your Remote Desktop Services session has ended (network problem)Networking

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.

Two steps away (21)

ECONNREFUSEDNode.js

Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:5432

Nothing is listening at that host:port — the target service is down or you’re connecting to the wrong address.

407HTTP

HTTP 407 Proxy Authentication Required

A proxy between you and the server requires credentials before it will forward your request.

408HTTP

HTTP 408 Request Timeout

The server closed the connection because the client took too long to send the complete request.

WSL 2 installation is incompleteDocker

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Docker Desktop on Windows needs WSL 2 and its Linux kernel; they’re missing, outdated or disabled.

Network cable unplugged / NO-CARRIERNetworking

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.

No Wi-Fi adapter found / Wi-Fi option missingNetworking

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.

No route to hostLinux

connect: No route to host (EHOSTUNREACH)

The destination host isn’t reachable — it’s down, on another subnet without routing, or a firewall rejects with “host unreachable…

arp -a shows (incomplete)Networking

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.

High TCP retransmissions / packet lossNetworking

Networking: netstat -s: segments retransmitted / Wireshark: TCP Retransmission, TCP Dup ACK — packet loss on the path

Packets are being lost, so TCP resends them and throughput collapses.

Windows has detected an IP address conflictNetworking

Networking: Windows has detected an IP address conflict / Duplicate address detected by 00:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee

Two devices on the same network are using the same IP address, so traffic reaches the wrong one or neither.

Wrong subnet mask: hosts can't reach each otherNetworking

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.

DHCPDISCOVER ... No DHCPOFFERS receivedNetworking

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.

502HTTP

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.

504HTTP

HTTP 504 Gateway Timeout

A proxy or gateway waited too long for the upstream server to respond and gave up.

Cloudflare 502Cloudflare

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…

Frag needed and DF set (ICMP type 3 code 4)Networking

Networking: ping: local error: message too long, mtu=1500 / Packet needs to be fragmented but DF set

A packet is larger than the path MTU and is marked "don't fragment", so a router discards it.

VPN connected but internal subnets unreachableNetworking

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.

OSPF neighbor stuck in EXSTART/EXCHANGENetworking

Networking: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Nbr 10.0.0.2 from EXSTART to DOWN — OSPF neighbor stuck in EXSTART/EXCHANGE (MTU mismatch)

Two OSPF routers see each other but never finish exchanging databases, cycling between EXSTART and DOWN.

Idle connections silently dropped by firewall/NATNetworking

Networking: Connection works, then fails after being idle — firewall/NAT idle timeout dropped the TCP session (use keepalive)

A connection that sat idle was forgotten by a firewall or NAT device, so the next packet gets reset or vanishes.

WireGuard: Handshake did not complete after 5 secondsNetworking

Networking: Handshake for peer did not complete after 5 seconds, retrying (try 2) — WireGuard tunnel never establishes

The WireGuard peers can't complete the cryptographic handshake, so no traffic flows.

NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN (IPsec/IKE)Networking

Networking: IKE: received NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN — IPsec peers can't agree on encryption, hash or DH group

The two VPN gateways offered encryption settings that have nothing in common, so the tunnel never comes up.
