Basically when I change from a DHCP assigned IP addresses to Manual IP addresses I have to re-enter in the Default Gateway twice to get it to stick and remember it.

Stage1: This is what it looks like when DHCP is turned on, the Default Gateway should be blank (it isn’t) The address is correct for my site so it works.

Stage 2: Then  I enter my Manual IP addresses settings and click ok.

Stage 3: Now I cant route traffic to my router/default gateway, so I check the settings again and find the previous Default Gateway setting has been lost.

Stage 4: I have to manually enter in the Default Gateway again, this time the setting is retained.

This happens consistently every time. The connection is wireless.

This is more of an annoyance than a real problem but if this happens to someone with little network experience this would likely trip them up.
