Hi,
I have an internet connection issue that has been driving me insane for weeks - hoping someone can help!
Basically I am only able to view sites from Google and YouTube - I understand these are ipv6 sites - all other sites (ipv4) are not viewable.
I have searched high and low for answers and have tried the following:
- Changing the DNS settings to:
IPv4 : DNS set to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
IPv6 : DNS set to 2001:4860:4860::8888 and 2001:4860:4860::8844
- Updated drivers
- factory reset router
- shut off antivirus and firewall. Tried an alternate antivirus.
- did malware/virus scan
- tried a different wireless dongle
- tried the following CMD instructions:
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /registerdns
ipconfig /release *CON*
ipconfig /renew
netsh int ip reset all
netsh winsock reset all
netsh winsock reset catalog
netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log
netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log
netsh int ip reset all
ipconfig /release
net stop "dns client"
net start "dns client"
All my other devices are fine.
The frustrating issue is that sometimes one of the above commands (usually 'flushdns') plus a restart will fix things temporarily. That might be for up to a few hours or just a few minutes or even seconds.
The problem keeps returning. My work is totally reliant on a reliable internet connection, so I'm tearing my hair out.
Any suggestions would be very gratefully received.
Thank you.
