Hello

I recently moved in with a friend, moving from my old network (no problems) to his. His setup is as follows: DSL -> Router -> LAN cabel -> His computer
For him, and any guests he has had, the network works without any problems. But I'm having problems.

Problem description
I connect to the network via a LAN port in the router just like him. I get internet access, but then things get weird.

1) I can browse the web via IE or Chrome, but only some websites work. Some works just fine, others simply wont load. I can't find any similarities between the not working ones.

2) Also, only few programs has internet access - so far it's my browsers and Spotify. But Skype and the two game clients I use can't gain internet access. Even Windows Update couldn't gain access to search for updates.

What I've tried
  • - Complete Windows 7 reinstall
    - 3 different LAN-cables, including the one my friend is using
    - All 4 LAN ports in the router
    - Reset the router to factory defaults
    - Searched for driver updates for my NIC (driver was up to date)
    - Sharing 4G connection from my phone via USB - then everything works just fine
    - Connecting to the network wirelessly with my phone - then Skype and not accessible websites works just fine on the phone
    - Checked the router assigns my computer an IP-address. It does.
    - Disabling firewall
I've run out of ways to troubleshoot the problem. Can anyone help me? Thanks a ton in advance.
 
Solution
Try going to network adapter properties and unchecking ipv6.

Also try downloading new drivers for lan from oem (either PC oem like Dell, HP) or if custom built PC the motherboard OEM.
