How to fix error "Your Internet access is blocked" when trying to connect to the default gateway?

Question

Recently upgraded to Windows 11 and now the machine cannot access http://192.168.0.1 (my default gateway) but I still have access to the Internet. I am 100% sure the problem is in the machine because there is no problem when I use a smartphone or a different machine (running Linux). I also never had such a problem when was using Windows 10.

What I tried:

• Update the OS and drivers (everything is up to date)
• No errors/warnings in Device Manager under Network adapters tab
• Switching network profile type (private-public) had no effect
• Disabling Windows Firewall and Windows Security had no effect
• netsh int ip reset (to be able to run this one and fix the "access denied" error I had to change {eb004a00-9b1a-11d4-9123-0050047759bc}\26 permission to full control to everyone in Registry Editor)
• ipconfig /flushdns
• netsh winsock reset
• Enabled Core Networking Diagnostics - ICMP Echo Request (ICMPv4-In) (Profile: Private, Public) and Core Networking Diagnostics - ICMP Echo Request (ICMPv6-In) (Profile: Private, Public) rules in Windows Firewall
• Resetting network in the settings

Of course, I rebooted the device a few times. The machine is connected through Wi-Fi and cannot be connect by the cable.
