Hello newbie here..my laptop connects to wifi but cannot browse. Shows ERR NAME NOT RESOLVED.
1.tried changing the dns to 8.8.8.8
2.tried ipflush ipregister and ipconfig in cmd
3.tried deleting cache and browsing history.
4.tried all other wifis in different place its the same.
Any suggestions would be really helpful
It seems that you might have a corrupted "HOSTS" file in your windows, please check that file (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts) --> open with notepad, the file must have all entries marked with "#" sign at start of each lines.
Example :-
The rest of the file should be empty, if there's an entry you will need to verify whether the entry is correct or not. A restart required after changes.
BTW, I'm assuming this is a personal computer & not corporate asset, some companies will have this file modified to suits their needs & if you modified the file you might end up some services no longer available to you.
