I think B is the best choice. Checking the default gateway first makes sense.

Really? I thought you should just restart the modem first.

Wait, isn't pinging local devices the same as checking the gateway?

I disagree, A might be better if you suspect proxy issues.

I usually start by pinging local devices using their IP addresses, but I guess it depends on the situation.

I’m a bit confused; should we start with the proxy server instead? I feel like that might be relevant too.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think pinging the default gateway helps check if the modem is connected properly.

I think the first step should be to ping the default gateway, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best approach.
