Selected Answer: A
Intermittent ping responses, as shown in the output, are a strong indicator of a duplicate IP address on the network. When two devices have the same IP address, one might respond to pings while the other might cause conflicts, leading to timeouts.

A is correct. With the wrong gateway or even no gateway you could ping 192.168.1.1 assuming something was there it would respond. With a duplicate 1.5 ip on the network you'd only get out half the time because you're competing with it.

Selected Answer: B
B. Incorrect default gateway The given output indicates a problem with communication to the default gateway (192.168.1.1), as indicated by the "Request timed out" messages. The partial ping results show that the server is not able to successfully reach the default gateway.This means that the server is unable to send packets to the specified default gateway (192.168.1.1), which could be due to a misconfiguration or a connectivity issue with the gateway itself.

Going with answer A. Each time I have ever encountered an IP conflict (two devices having same IP) I have got the one received one lost pings.

The reasoning seems to be, that the reply packet was routed to the duplicate IP owner and thus not to the original sender.
