Windows 10: My connection is fine but browsers wont work on my computer

So this started about 3-4 weeks back. My computer would suddenly just lose connection as far as browsers are concerned but everything else says my connection is fine theres no issues at all still connected can still access discord, my email, steam, can download files thru other means just fine but browsers just wont work until i restart the computer and its slowly increased the frequency i would have to restart to the point i could be in the middle of reading or watching a youtube video and it just hard stops. nothing is telling me i have an issue restarting the modem doesn't work, unplugging

:)

 

Ping works fine, but no Internet connection in browser

Without having changed any settings, I can't access the Internet anymore through my laptop running Windows 10. Every browser tells me the connection has timed out. I can connect to the router and other devices on the network are not affected. Windows tells me that I am "connected to the Internet" but apparently, that's no help. It doesn't seem to work through other WiFi networks or ethernet either.

ping google.com works fine and surfing by IP address does not help.
I tried restarting the computer, restarting the router, resetting IP configuration with no avail. I couldn't find a problem in the network settings either. I tried about anything suggested on this website.
I hope someone of you has any idea as to what could resolve the issue. Thanks.

Update

So it turns out I can access google websites such as google.com or youtube, but nothing else. I tried some of the suggestions I found online, but nothing worked. Ideas?

 

Internet connected but browsers not working Windows 10

I have a Dell XPS 13 on Windows 10 and suddenly by browsers wont work and other features wont connect to the internet even though in the taskbar it says I'm connected to my WiFi. I've tried: restarting
my computer, restarting my router and I've done all the winsock resets and stuff and nothing works. I've gone thru all previous answers to this problem and the solutions dont work for me. Please outline steps clearly as I'm pretty basic at computer stuff.

THANK YOU
