Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias, especially in troubleshooting steps involving network connectivity and DNS resolution. Windows-specific tools (PsPing, Notepad, editing C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts) are referenced exclusively, with no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents. Example commands and file paths are Windows-only, and instructions for editing the hosts file are tailored to Windows users. No Linux or macOS alternatives are provided for key troubleshooting steps.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all troubleshooting steps, such as using 'ping', 'nc', or 'curl' for connectivity checks, and editing '/etc/hosts' for host file changes.
  • Include example commands for Linux/macOS alongside Windows commands, and clarify cross-platform applicability.
  • Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., 'ping', 'traceroute', 'nslookup') and avoid referencing Windows-only utilities unless alternatives are given.
  • Add screenshots or instructions for Linux/macOS environments where relevant.
  • Explicitly state when steps are OS-specific and provide parity for all supported platforms.
