You are trying to fix an issue where you are not able to connect to the Internet. You try to ping the IP address of a well-known website and get an output like the one shown in the image. All websites that you try to ping display the same output. Which of the following could lead to a ping output as shown in the image?
  1. Your system is not connected to the network.
  2. Your browser is corrupt.
  3. Your host network is congested.
  4. TCP/IP stack is corrupt.
Explanation
Answer - C - If the ping command output displays a “Request Timed Out” message, it means your host network is congested.

Key Takeaway: The Request Timed Out error indicates that your host did not receive the ping message back from the destination device within the designated time period. Assuming that the network connectivity is okay on your system, this is typically an indicator that the destination device is not connected to the network, is powered off, or is not configured correctly. It can also indicate that there is so much congestion on the network that timely delivery of the ping message could not be completed.
