Windows 10: Unable to connect to all websites on all browsers

I was able to connect to any website last night but when I opened up Chrome today, I could only open a few websites and most of these sites are popular such as barstoolsports, macys, tomshardware, pcgamer, etc... I tried different browsers and had the exact same problem. The sites I could connect to are sites that I go to often like amazon, netflix, youtube, etc... I get the following messages:xyz site unexpectedly closed connecction orThe site cannot be reachedI've tried scanning for viruses, malware/spyware, cleared cache/cookies, resetting router/modem, resetting time/date, ipconfig, flush

Browsers can't connect to some websites

Hello,

Since you are unable to connect websites through ant browser, this issue could might have cause due to internet connection or ISP related.

So I suggest you to connect to the same network to another device and check the issue persists there as well.

Please let us know the status of the issue for further assistance.
