Can't access half the internet

Justfarrar this website has quite a extensive list of troubleshooting
network problems Just search the forums,
I believe the errors your referring is related to DNS which requires
changing some registry keys, if not check for an updated version of your
DSL router firmware as it may be incompatible.

If these fail please let me know. cheers

Yes, I spent a while browsing the site this morning trying to find
answers. Unfortunately I'm quite busy and not a smart hand at computers,
so thought I'd try the more direct approach, and inquire myself. I'll
look into the DNS and get back to you, thanks.

Hi,

Close all browsers and any program that uses an internet connection. Click
start and type CMD. Right click the entry that appears in the program menu
and choose 'run as administrator'. From the prompt, run "ipconfig /flushdns"
(without the quotes). Exit the command prompt when completed, retry the
various sites.

Hi,

Tried Windows defender and ipconfig/flushdns.

No improvement :confused:

Turn off IPv6 on all adapters where it is not required... that's a good
start, then see if things are better - depending on other net devices IPv6
alongside IPv4 makes for very messy/unreliable internet connections.

Thanks for everyone's help.

Found a solution. Had to input every all the ip's and other such LAN
settings manually, took ages, but voila!
