    Can't reach a certain website

    Thanks a lot for you reply.

    Sorry that I saw it only 3 days after you sent t to me. Hotmail had pushed your answer in the junk section, so I missed it. The problem with not reaching that website got solved two days after my question to you, as it was suddenly reachable as usual. So
    probably the problem was based on the server's side of that website. Just strange, that during the trouble to reach it by my wifi, it was working on the data transfer by my cell's sim card.

    Thanks a lot for taking your time to try to help me out.

  3. Can't access certain websites in Win10

    Hi Alan,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

    I appreciate your efforts and time.

    • As I understand you are unable to access certain websites, what websites are you not able to access?
    • Have you logged in with a Microsoft account or a local account?
    I suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps.

    • Network troubleshooter. Either search for it in the Search or run it by following the link below.
    Fix Wi-Fi connection issues in Windows

    • Try a different network adapter/connection type if possible.
    • Check for Windows Updates.
    • Check for drivers for the network adapter.
    • Open a CMD window as Administrator:
      • dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
      • sfc /scannow
      • netsh winsock reset
    Also try to restart the DNS service.

    • Press Windows Logo Key+X. Click on Run.
    • Type services.msc. Click on Ok.
    • Then find DNS client. Right-click on it to Stop it and Restart it.
    If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
