I can not have gateway

Hello everyone, I am working with Windows 2012 R2 and I get the gateway 0.0.0.0 , I 'm connected with host - only  and static network configuration . When i put  the gateway manually disappears automatically . I searched the internet for a solution but I could not fix the problem.

Welcome to the Community,

for Host-Only networking you have to configure the virtual machine with an IP address in the Host-Only network (192.168.46.x in this case). I'd recommend you use an address between 192.168.46.3 and 192.168.46.172 to avoid IP address conflicts with e.g. the built-in DHCP server range. Btw. for the Host-Only network you don't need a Default Gateway anyway.

Please provide the full details about your network configuration, i.e. the host's as well as the guest's settings and addresses (e.g. the output of ipconfig /all for both of them).

Your screenshots showed the x.x.x.1 IP address as the guest's network address. Can you confirm that this is NOT already in use for your gateway/router.
