I can't thank you enough. Not only has this sorted the problem that started today, but also another problem I'd been having for many months that I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to fix.
Do you sorted the problem? I don't know how to do this. I tried everything, but nothing worked
Wow. Nice to know I'm not the only one with this problem, during the quarantine.
me too got the same problem and it only just happen during quarantine
@@AsyzBCC did it work for you
@@Gazing yeahh it work
@@AsyzBCC did it take a while like a day?
U mean the problem? Yeah it is take like a day
I tried EVERYTHING I could think of, even other things I found on Google, and this right here finally fixed my problem! Seriously thank you so much! This was a Godsent!
thank you so much man i’ve got quarantine school work and i don’t know what i would’ve done without you thank you so much
I have just done everything you have said Andrew and im about to restart my computer. Fingers crossed this works, it's done my head in for the last 2 days and no other you tube video has worked.
did it work?
Did it work tho?
Mfker didn't answered after 3 years.
Sat here for 5 hours trying to troubleshoot, thank you so much.
This didn't work at first, I had to re-start my modem before it continued. So guys pls remember to re-start your modem if it doesn't work. Thanks a lot Andrew
Thanks.
It did not work at first then I saw your comment that you have to restart the modem. Now it's all good. Thanks a bunch.
thanks mate, saved me a lot of hassle
Thank you so much!!!
@Fitzgerald NeoAres Lengkong a router
6 years later this still works! I cant thank you enough!! i had to do it twice to work for me
please am using a desktop computer, windows 7 and LAN connection. how can i go about it
Three years later and this method helped me. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! I have had this problem for months and had to keep doing a reset of
of my network almost every day and did searches on the internet to find the solution to
no avail. I asked God to help me today and God led me to your RUclips Video.
Thanks for the help mate, a true life saver. I wouldn't have been able to turn in my assignment on time if it wasn't for you.
Thank you Andrew. It's funny, it is a common exercise on IT class to set the DNS server to 8.8.8.8 in Packet Tracer, but I never know what it does or what it means. Anyway, it works now so thank you again
Thank you.This only affected MY win8 laptop, none of the other pc's (Win10 and Win7) were affected, so not a modem issue. I had to set both the wifi and the ethernet connections, with the ipv4 and the ipv6 addresses. Most videos just show the IPV4 solution, but it wasn't until I found your video and set the ipv 4 AND 6 (on BOTH my connections) that I finally had access.
been messing with computers my entire life and I've never come across this problem, google doesn't have a fix, my ISP has no fix. I looked for an hour. thank you for existing.
Right? Me too and there are a ton of so called fixes that didn't work on the internet too.
Just wow. Still works after 4 years. Thank you!
its a bit suspicious GOOGLE LOOKING AT YOU.
turn off your computer and anything else that is connected to your Router. Then turn off your router and wait at least 30 minutes, i usually leave it for an hour. Then restart the router. When the router is finished booting and is connected to the internet, start you pc. This always works for me. I think it is called a DNS reset... DO NOT PRESS THE RESET^ BUTTON ON YOUR ROUTER, this will factory reset it, which is not what you want to do!
Idk how much it helps you but liked and subbed. Been banging my head against the wall with this issue and this fixed it right away. You're a legend.
lad I could help. Cheers for the sub bro, appreciate you and hope to provide more value as time goes by...
(UPDATE: I was able to access websites again after leaving my computer on for an hour. still dont know whats going on.)
on an ethernet connection and I've tried every single one of these methods, the manual ipv4/6 thing shown in the video, the CMD reset commands such as DNS flush and "netsh ipv4/6 reset", (briefly) disabling and resetting firewall, replacing ethernet cables, virus scans, checking the host file in system 32, looking for port hogs in task manager, resetting the router via unplugging for 2 minutes, checking if I'm being forced on a proxy server, using a different browser, disabling and reenabling the network, looking for unusual port forwarding rules, checking with my isp for outages, and literally none of it worked. Every reset however, I'm able to connect to websites for a brief moment before it's unable to connect. and RUclips works completely fine, JUST RUclips. I have no idea what's going on. All I did before the day it happened was play Apex and I was especially laggy before getting off. I touched NOTHING else.
The same problem here i did everything but only RUclips works.
I would recommend also restarting your router after doing this. I had this issue right after updating my laptop, which I find very ironic in an interesting way. Thank you Andrew.
Yes thats true
This!! ^^ Thanks for your help mate
You're a lifesaver, man! Thank you so much for a consistent fix :)
Thank you very much. I had almost taken my laptop to be fixed. You guided me thorough it and fixed my problem.
Thank you very much. I liked and subbed.
Just thought of sharing our experience with the same scenario. I have the same problem after adding an Ethernet switch. Once the switch was removed, problem was solved. Therefore, before modifying any Network configurations, please check whether you have added any Hardware (similar to Ethernet switch etc.) between your Modem and PCs/Laptops. Modifying Network configuration may cause more problem, it happened to our daughters PC. Thanks.
Thank you so much for the help! It's kinda weird that only google related products worked, but nevertheless thank you so much!
ILLUMINATI!!MINION!!SUSSYAMOGUS!!!!
THEORY!!!!
CANDICE IS GAY!!!!😱😱😱😱
pog.
i have been dealing with this for MONTHS!!!! i've searched youtube several times and finally i find this video.... and it worked! Thank yoU!
0:52
noice
cheers to this guy-
It worked! Thank you. I restarted my router as well. Just in case. And it worked. Awesome!
How did these settings change?? I never change them....
thats what im saying dog. how do these problems happen on my computer, if i never do anything to cause them?
Dude it worked like a charm...Thanks a lot, I had to do my Quarantine Homework and this was a life saver
You're a legend omg. It literally solved my issue!
Still works 4 years after your post. Thanks Andrew.
I had tried so many different things before this and this one actually worked! Cheers mate. That's wicked.
Yeah, got an error for two evenings when on my home computer I could only open RUclips and Google Search, while Steam got slow as hell, Discord and GOG wouldn't open and no other web site would load. Got constant PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR errors.
And this fixed my issues. Thank you!
Thank you sooo much! :D I needed to write a paper for uni and started panicking, as I couldn't download any essays.
I tried so many options and this is the only one, that worked for me!! :)
I wonder how this can happen in the first place, I didn't tamper with anything on my notebook, so weird.
Andrew, can you believe that your video is still relevant in 2022 on windows 11? Thank you my very good gentleman sir.
Although this vid has been up for a while, I think it's always worth giving credit to well done and helpful vids just like this. You'd say thank you to someone irl for helping open a door for your, so just the same applies here. Thanks mate!
Thank you also :)
ty bro so much 2021 still working
This works in 2023 the only difference is U go to wifi, connect to a wifi, then click the (i) at the top right, then click ipv4 and turn it on, go to his description and copy past the ipv4 info then scroll down to Ipv6. (btw I did both so I am not sure if u need to do both) My hotspot from my phone was giving me the problem he talked about.
its 2022 june, i faced the same problem, and even after 5 years, it still magically works! You truly are a life savor!
A question, how many times did you have to do it? I'm having this problem right now and after changing the DNS twice everything works for only about 5 minutes after restart before braking down again;;
@@izyli8953 I thought the problem was solved too, I was AFKing for 30 mins to take a shower and now everything is back to the beginning 😭😭😭😭
@@juicy9465 We're in this together then 🙃 I'm now waiting after my third attempt to see if perhaps it's magically working now. I read the comments and someone said they switched the IPv4 back to automatic and it helped them, but when I tried to do it it somehow disconnected me from the internet entirely?? (I'm on a cable) maybe it was just a coincidence but it's really annoying. I have finals to study to and instead I'm trying to fix my computer...
@@izyli8953 bro I tried another method where u go to powershell ise via the search bar and type in netsh int reset, and restart ur computer. That worked for 5mins again and now it's broken again.
@@izyli8953 hold on I've made a mistake it's "netsh int ip reset"
I can't believe that it actually worked. Wow. I wasted so much time figuring it out and your solution took like a minute in the end. Thanks!
Legend! I didn't even need to restart, just disabled the network connection and then re-enabled.
Ok good news: this works perfectly ^^
Bad news: thats kind of a lie. I mean it did work, problem is now it keeps freezing every couple minutes for a few seconds. Any help to this? might've been something i did, idk for sure. I filled in both boxes if that did anything, but agian, idk for sure.
ok, i have 0 idea why i was given this issue randomly and have spent hours trying to fix it, thankyou so much for this video and for fixing the issue
so bad i tried and it still cannot reach any website other than youtube
Just install anti virus software, and do full scan....it worked for me........
@@civilengineeringclass How will I install an antivirus if I can't open any site??
try checking your lan cable in your modem
Absolute legend, still works! Had to restart my modem too (not just turn it on and off) and it’s working as it should. Thanks!
thank you so much! by solving this i solved a big part of my career together. lots of love. bless you!:)
It worked! I recently rebuilt rig and installed new wifi adapter. internet worked somedays and not others but youtube always worked. lots of troubleshooting, happy it was simple! thank you
For me it happens in the whole home network, every device, started at a random moment. This didn't fix it but I will try and see if I can do something similar in the router settings.
if it says obtaining IP adress, you need to restart the router or either wait
im having the same problems with all my devices. did you fix this.? I can search google fine but will not go to any link from there. I can play youtube fine but thats it.. wont even do a sppedtest.. & this is on my PC phone & anything connected to mt wireless router... thanks.. if it helps im also on EE fiber
Did you fix it? I'm having this issue
@@VoliKnight354 I contacted my provider and the only fix after 3 weeks of trying everything was for them to swap my broadband fibre port at the exchange box. Worked straight away then.
VoliKnight354 that was pretty long time ago so I can’t remember at all, I think it wasn’t a problem on our side so our internet provider fixed it after some time but I’m not too sure about remembering this right.
still dont know what suddenly caused this problem but your addresses worked for me, thanks
this worked last year but not this time. idk what to do
Me neither :(
@@sand123 did u fix it yet cuz im having that problem now plz help
@@vivifybumz7918 same.
did you fix it? :3
Neev S. same, did you fix it lol?
@@Crockodog I did
Thank you very much, you just save me from being absent to my classes
please help me
same problem
I've done this and restarted it, I've got rid of my anti-virus and still I'm getting the same problem. I've tried so many things and it just doesn't seem to be working. Can anyone help?
Have you found a solution yet? I'm currently experiencing the same problem here too. How bizarre that it only connects to youtube and google. Really curious as to why that is...
Yeah, I've fixed it. I went back and did this again a week later and just started messing around with it and then it started working. For internet protocol 4 I have it set to 'obtain DNS address automatically' and for internet protocol 6 I have it set to 'use the following DNS server addresses'. You need to tick that box and then put the numbers in, 2001:4860:4860::8888 and 2001:4860:4860::8844. So basically do the same thing as what the guy in this video did but set IPV4 to 'obtain DNS address automatically'. That's what I did and it somehow fixed it. I hope this helps. Let me know if it does. :)
omg it actually worked ;_; thanks man you're the best
You are very welcome. I'm so glad it worked for you! :)
Rawr x3 nuzzles how are you *pounces on you* a malware
Thanks for the info. I knew it was a DNS issues, but I didnt know how to actually change it.
A tip for other websites: If you have this issue and google a site that seems to have some info you need. You can use Google web translate to indirectly access the site. Since I am not a native English speaker I get this option on most sites within my nation, but I assume it can be used from English to English as well just to enable you to read the page content.
its my entire router bro, my xbox my phone my pc and my Mac, do I do the same for all of those
Thank you! I had this problem for 3 days up until I found your fix and now its gone! Good video short, sweet, and it works
well...... didn't work for me
SAME HERE. What should I do?
Do the opposite then it will work
What causes this? I just hope I haven't picked up a bug. Hope this works. Thanks
Didn’t work on windows 11….
Did you ever figure it out?
@@romynherme6106I set Both ipv4 and ipv6 to obtain dns automatically and it worked for me.
Thank you so much. I think geeks get even more frustrated when things like this happen and you can't figure it out. Well, you solved it. I had to do one additional thing. I had to forget my network on all devices, then log back in. Eureka!! they all seem to work just fine now. Did you or anyone figure out why this happened? I am blaming comcast my internet provider. Thank you again so much.
Useless
Thank you, sir! I was having this problem and it turned out my ethernet cable was not fully plugged into my PC and it was using my wifi signal instead with a weird set of DNS number. Pushed the cable back in firmly, PC back to ethernet cable, all is well!

Hey! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! I'm not sure why my computer just started doing this... but your solution worked! Thank you.
what do i do if this doesn't work?
When a tech tip actually works, it gets me to sub.
Thank you! Wish I found your video before I tried all the other stuff!!!
it still works after 6 years thank you so much
THANK YOU! This really did the trick! My appreciation to you for sharing this good sir. Just a side question if anyone knows but how would this issue have occur?
can you please help it didnt work for me and ive doing this for a fucking MMMMMMOOOOONT pls help.
@@h8rol In case you rememer making this comment and seeing this video after 3 years, did it work? It didn't fix the problem for me and still no website other than google, youtube works
this did not fix my problem, did it three times, but i appreciate you trying to help!! TY
PS: IT WORKED IT WORKED took two says BUT IT FINALLY WORKED. I followed directons three times the 1st day restarting after each try. CLOSED for the night & tried twice the next day but not REstarting but shutting down all the way WOOOOLA! ty ty THANK YOU!! xo
Thankyou very much you kind sir. I just got my lan connection my wifi was working fine on laptop and mobile. But I was not able to open other than RUclips on my desktop using ethernet connection.
Using this method now I am available to open any website.
It did not work right after but I think it helped. I checked my security settings and uninstalled 3rd party security that I did not subscribe to just in case that was the problem. Then after restarting I checked my security settings again and got an issue that said IT administrator has limited access on my security settings. My main account was the only account connected. So I went to windows about the issue and they already had step by step instructions with command prompts and copy and paste. It worked for me after that. So I'm still liking the video.
You are a legend! Thanks to you I fixed up the problem! I didn't thought I could do it before.
THANK YOU!
idk why my internet just stopped working and just like he said i was only able to use my brower an MOSTLY only watch youtube vid
but this did help for me
i had to do it for both my WI-FI & ETHERNET
YES!!!!
It works perfectly. I was searching the solution for last two days and was very disappointed. Even I installed new windows os in my pc to get rid of this problem. But everything failed except your steps.
Thank you so much for the help. I am going to subscribe your channel. Stay well ...!!!
Thank you very much. I had been trying it for hours and was really frustrated about it. You saved my day.
The tutorial is still functioning. Thank you for the video, is amazing.
I don't usually comment, but got respect for a nice, quick and concise video. and it worked first try!
