Solved How do I change cmd to default settings?

[boyzy]

Hi,

Recently my computer's internet gliched and I can no longer connect to any webpage. I think it might have somthing to do with me deleting route 0.0.0.0 on cmd. this is what I wrote:

route delete -p 0.0.0.0

Is there any way i can restore the deleted route?

Hi and welcome to the Forum
Can you do a system restore to a point behind when you did the deletion? It would also beg the question why did you delete it?

route ADD?

Can't you just replace the missing entry?

You should create a backup system image before you start (in case of disaster).

To display the IPv4 Route Table use:

route print -4
​

To replace the missing route use:

route ADD 0.0.0.0 MASK 0.0.0.0 <Gateway IP> METRIC <metric> IF <interface>
​

You can get the <Gateway IP> by using:

ipconfig
​

You should be able to work out the METRIC and IF by examining the IPv4 Route Table.

​

For example my info:

• <Gateway IP> 192.168.1.127
• <metric> 266
• <interface> 11

Therefore my command would be:

route ADD 0.0.0.0 MASK 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.127 METRIC 266 IF 11
​

Note:
I have a static IP address (not DHCP provided IP address).
