Couple of days ago I bought a new D-Link router connected it and all the devices like phones and my laptop were connected to the internet and everything was fine but the issue is that my PC showed internet connection is availble, but I couldnt really open any webpages nor programs that requaire internet I typed in cmd: "ping google.com" and got "Ping request could not find host google.com..."
Typed ping 8.8.8.8 and got 4 replies with 4 recieved 0 lost . Just for checking I connected my old router again and the internet worked perfectly fine if anybody can help out , it's very apriciated.
