Sorry about formatting. I have to type this from mobile, because my PC, and everything else on my home network, can only access Google's websites. Trying to access any other websites yields the "_.com took too long to respond" error. I have been trying to fix this on and off for a few days, and I have checked forum after forum after video after video before bothering you all with something like this. Let me tell you what I have discovered so far.
1. As many of you may already expect, I have iPv6 connectivity, but I do not have iPv4 connectivity. I confirmed this in Ethernet Status in Network and Sharing. Same thing happens on WiFi. Disabling IPv6 does not fix the problem.
2. I went into my router settings on routerlogin.net and tried setting a static IP and static DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4). This did not fix the problem.
3. I have the most up to date networking drivers for Windows 1903 (which I recently updated to) for my Realtek PCIe Network Adapter, but I tried to uninstall and reinstall the software and the driver itself... Still no dice.
4. Of course, I did try the netsh winsock and flush DNS command prompts. Still nothing.
5. I called my ISP to try to see if the problem was on their end. It wasn't, according to them, and they are sending a tech out tomorrow, but I don't think it's going to do any good. All they are going to do is make sure everything is connected properly, I'm sure.
6. I bought a new router/modem, and the problem still persists with the new equipment.
7. I tried noting in Safe Mode with Networking, but the problem persists during Safe Mode.
8. I restored a system image to Windows 1809. Still nothing.
Am I missing something here? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. At this point, I think the problem is either with my ISP (Comcast) or my router, which seems unlikely because a new router is doing the exact same thing as the old one.
