This usually happens when 2 devices are connected directly without a router. For example:
2 Android devices connected via the hotspot provided by one of them
2 laptops connected via an ethernet cable
In these scenarios, the user might try to transfer large files between devices, and there will be only 2 devices in the LAN, 1 being the gateway. Since multicast is likely not implemented or disabled, we can use the gateway IP as if it is the multicast discovery IP.
