Routers know about its directly connected routes only by default without any help/entries. But, in case of static routing and no dynamic protocols running, you will need manually add routes for every possible destination; every router must know how to reach remote networks.  This is also true for return path; aka both ways to and from your source/destination.

you missing some routes:

R2 and R5 are missing 10.10.5.0 255.255.255.0

PC2 has wrong gateway IP address; looks like a typo; once you fix that, R5 does not know how to reach PC2

Hello,

 

what are the router passwords ?

Sorry i forgot to mention , its 123

 

Hello,

 

I was working on your file, but saw that you got an answer already. I might as well post the revised file. With static routes, the general rule of thumb is that you want to configure only the most necessary ones, otherwise it can get rally tedious.

 

In the attached file, I used mainly default routes, and only some specific ones.

Thank you sir , I will surely look into it
