Hi all, I am very new in Cisco Packet tracer, and I am interested in IT. I've been told to use Cisco Packet tracer to create a network however, I am struggling with a problem. At times I keep getting errors and I'm not sure why. The error is "The device does not have a service that accepts this frame. It drops the frame."
I cannot manage to get my West building PC's 10-15 (switch2) to ping/send a pdu to connect to PC's 1-9, Laptops (PC's16-20). I have spent a good few hours stressing and wanting to pull out my hair cause it isn't working however my East Buildings are completely fine in terms of ping/sending a pdu within the East Building however, I cannot get my East building switch 2 to ping/send a pdu to any devices in the West Building..... I am stressing out because everything looked fine to me...
Testing123 is password for switch
L1 Is West Building
^^ First switch
^^ 2nd switch
L2 Is East Building
^^First switch
^^2nd switch
Can someone please help me in terms of what I've done wrong and submit what you've changed.. If you could please help me it would be greatly appreciated.

PCs default gateway should always be layer 3 device: L3 switch or router; not L2 switch; change from 130 to 172.16.0.129

Thank you very much for your help. I thought that I had to use the default gateway that I had created hence the "172.16.0.129", your answer fixed my problem

By any chance, would you know how to fix this?
I am trying to ping any wired device in west building to S_L2_1 but it keeps failing, have I done something wrong?
I then need to configure a SSH from any laptop in the East building to ping S_L2_1, Router 0, Router 1, S_L1_1.. I haven't setup SSH before in packet tracer, is it easy to do?
SSH configured with the following:

Hello,
on the switch, you are using the wrong default gateway, it needs to be:
ip default-gateway 172.16.0.65
For SSH access, you need to add the commands below (in the file attached, I have added SSH to the S_L2_1 switch, it works the same on the other devives). The password will be visible in the configuration in clear text, if you do not want that, configure 'service password-encryption' globally on the devices:
S_E_1#conf t
S_E_1(config)#ip domain-name testing123.com
S_E_1(config)#username Admin privilege 15 password 0 Testing123
S_E_1(config)#crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus 1024 ?
S_E_1(config)#crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus 1024
S_E_1(config)#ip ssh version 2
S_E_1(config)#line vty 0 4
S_E_1(config-line)#transport input ssh
