Not sure what you mean by google youtube on a pc, but I'll assume you mean your regular browser is working (chrome, firefox etc.).
Discord is different in that it needs certain permissions in firewall yes, and so does steam. Typically windows defender will automatically let through both as it knows what both are, but do you have any other firewalls? Your router perhaps has a bit more stringent settings on it set up by someone else and you may not be aware of it?

Well you can but it is odd. Every router has firewall or at least every router I've ever seen. The question would be how much others have futzed with its settings, and if you need to separately port forward for those specific apps in order to get them working. But sure you can send a screenshot of the settings, and the model of the router.

Screenshots are in dutch but ill say what they say
what is marked blue means rules and the text behind chrome for example basically means doesnt matter every and then weigeren means block and toestaan means allow

Considering most of us can't speak a word of dutch, I think it's just fine.
I think you need re-setting up steam permissions. This explains how:
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2198-AGHC-7226
once you delete all the pre-existing conditions for steam on the router, it should prompt you to do them all again when you start steam. Just follow instructions and see if it works for you.
If not, you may need to find out where port forwarding is on your router settings, and then manually set up permissions for all steam related processes to have access to port range that steam uses. I can probably find port range for you, but try the first solution once.

You could try temporarily turning off your router's firewall, and then see if you can connect to the sites you mentioned. If you can, then you know it is something with the firewall settings.

Wait so...they work just after you restart the pc, even with router firewall on, but for some reason, you lose connection later on steam and discord?
