  1. Web browsing


    Some websites dont work on my computer at various times, Quick assist keeps trying to load, and I cant log out of my old account or add a new one. There are certain websites that I can browse no problem, but I cannot log onto my school sites or google account. When I diagnose the system it says everything is fine with the ethernet connection but something is wrong with the site the site works on other computers. We've tried to wipe the computer, took off Mcaffee, disabled firewall then put it back, made sure dns was right, and still cannot get into some sites. Its frustrating as it's a brand new hp computer running on windows 10, but my old windows 8 works just fine.

    [Solved] Web Browsing Timing Out Frequently But Downloads Unaffected

    Google DNS is a good thing to test, which is why it is commonly suggested. *Wink Web browsing ;)

    As I explained before, ISP DNS servers can cause issues, go down, and not be updated to your device providing DNS. If you want to go a step further, login to your router and set the DNS servers uses and provides over DHCP to the Google DNS and remove the ISP DNS servers. Be done with it.

    I also strongly recommend OpenDNS servers for safer browsing, especially if you're not into browsing malicious, porn or questionable sites. 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.222.222. Those are what I use at home...effective DNS filtering to keep many bad sites that are flagged with malware out of your home network and web browsers. Free and effective.

    At this point if its working, I'd say use it for a day and see if issues come back...if so then the other things I suggested might be worth looking at.

    Quick DNS 101

    DNS = Domain Name Servers... what it does is take what you type in your web browser, or for ping, or some name domain request...take Techpowerup.com. DNS takes that and looks into an index/cache to find out what address it is...say 123.123.123.123 and then sends the reply to the ping session, web browser, etc. so you can go to Techpowerup.com.

    DNS is like a phone book, you look up a person's name for their phone number to call them and connect. DNS does that for web sites and services. It is critical for web site usage where everyone can remember domain names, but not IP addresses.

    Browsing the web on 3G

    I have setup my phone to work on the WLAN and it browses the web fine...but what about when I am out and about?

    Can't i just browse based on the 3G ? How do I set this up? There is a long list of access points on my phone, which should I choose (I am on Vodafone BTW).

    Will this work when roaming too?

    THANKS

    Chris
