Hello!
I have a very frustrating issue: I'm connected by Ethernet. I can successfully "ping" website names from the command line, but all of my internet browsers time out on all websites. Chrome is the only browser that can load anything, a single site: https://docs.google.com/. If I use my phone as a USB tether, everything works fine. Ethernet works fine, in safe mode. Yesterday, Youtube started working as well, then abruptly stopped. Up to last week, the internet connection wasn't able to be identified, and Google Docs wouldn't open either. Windows displayed "Unidentified Network". Overnight, without any changes, Windows identified the network.
Machine:
Win10 x64
Tried 2 network cables
Reinstalled Drivers
Boot in Safe Mode w/ Networking - EVERYTHING WORKS THEN!
Virus/Malware/Rootkit/Adware Scans
Ran Norton Removal Tool (even though I didn't have Norton)
ipconfig /release /renew
Flush DNS
netsh winsock reset
No proxies set -> all default obtain automatically.
Turned Off Windows Firewall
Check hosts.ini has 127.0.0.1 localhost
Tried changing DNS to 8.8.8.8
Tried typing web page IPs directly into chrome, no luck
I've read many posts with similar issues, but haven't seen one with this configuration, and this weird inconsistency. Thanks in advance for the help.
