Look carefully at that:
MS:   string IPAddress[]
You:  String IPAddress1[2]

Is a "S"tring a "s"tring?
I would also think that  IPAddress1[1] should be emptied.
I submit for your contemplation (from MS)

DefaultIPGateway 
Data type: string array
Access type: Read-only

Array of IP addresses of default gateways that the computer system
uses.

Example: "192.168.12.1 192.168.46.1"

Note that this is just a char array with a space between values.
