Windows 10: Connection Time Out for certain websites while other websites or LAN access are OK

This problem appears frequently but not sure what the reason is.When the problem happens:1. For browser going to China website, such as qq.com, zhihu.com and other famous websites which are less likely to be down, browser reports ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT Microsoft Edge and The connection has timed out FireFox; However, if going to Google or YouTube, it is just fine.2. For non-browser applications, they report connection problems.3. All other computers Windows, Linux, Apple Devices within the same network never have this problem. Just one particular device has ever have the problem.Where

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.

• 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.

 

Router Denying Websites

My Router is denying certain websites, from a certain Server, but I don't remember equipping it to do so. It's a seemingly random occurance (which will not stop). Server's websites are perfectly accessible once the router is removed and straight cable connection is used instead. Frustrating.

I've tried resetting the router, but it doesn't want to for some reason (held and pressed button for 15 secs).

Any suggestions? *Wtf :wtf:
