In this tutorial, I will teach you how to configure the D-Link wireless router in bridge mode to communicate with another WiFi router to connect two LAN networks. The network diagram is like this.

You can see this error while you ping a remote device or remote server from your PC if the ping operation could not succeed.

If the host is too busy or the device port does not support the …
