Hi,
my PC is behind a Powerline Adapter which is connected to the Router and my server is directly connected to my router. The problem is, when I use ssh from my PC to connect to my server, it times out. But when I do it from Terminus on my Phone it works.
I've heard that Powerline Adapters create some kind of "subnetwork".
Is there any kind of workaround to this, so I can access my server from my PC?

The server is orignially supposed to be a NAS server, just for some context.

ARP on my PC says there is no 10.0.0.42 (my server)
what should I do?

So my PC and my server both have 10.0.0.xx addresses.
My router has this IP: 10.0.0.138

Where do I set the default gateway? Does it reset the ssh access that I do have with my phone?

If your PC is set to DHCP then the default gateway is usually set automatically. Open a cmd.exe window and run "ipconfig /all" it will show your default gateway address.

Since you can't ssh, I assume you have attempted PING and failed?

The default Gateway, DHCP Server, and DNS Server are all the same IP 10.0.0.138
I have attempted a PING but it didn't time out, it just said "Destination host unreachable"

So I found out that I set my PC as a DMZ and I didn't remember it. I disabled it but the problem is only half fixed.
I can access my PC via ssh now, but if I use it as a game server or NAS it still doesn't work.
I checked if the ports are open, and they are. So I don't really see the problem.
I tried to connect to my game server via external and internal IP, neither worked.

I can PING my router without a problem. I can now also PING my server.
