What have you tried to fix it? What do you think could be causing the issue?

I tried changing the ip address and set a default gateway. No luck.

1) The switch was on a different subnet (192.168.5.0/24) than the PCs or router (192.168.1.0/24). I changed the IP Address of VLAN 1 to 192.168.1.254/24.

2) Confgured Default Gateway is incorrect. I Changed Configured Default Gateway to 192.168.1.1 (Fa0/0 on Router0)

3) Under Line Configuration for the vty lines, you had the "login" command, but no password command. You had a local user account "kyle", so I just changed the command to "login local" so that you could login with that account.

PC is now able to SSH to SW1
