My apologies if this is in the wrong section, I am still not clear on whether this is a networking issue or a Windows issue.
The Issue:
I have a few websites that I haven't worked on in a while, maybe 6 months. Recently I tried loading them and get nothing, sometimes it will be a blank white screen or connection error message. I spoke to tech support at my hosting company and was told both sites are live. They mentioned that maybe my IP was blocked but that wasn't the case. I can get into my wordpess dashboard but can't see any of the edits I make, the pages won't load. On my laptop I have a good internet connection and everything else loads fine. I tried another laptop on the same wireless network as well as my phone and the sites load fine. I am not really sure what happened but I really need to get a solution for this problem so I can my sites redone and up and running again. If anyone has any insight as to what went wrong I would be greatly appreciative.
Notes:
-My computer is an HP Pavilion with Windows 8.1 Unfortunately I can't find any information on the model number. The laptop is connected to a wireless router and this in my home, not a work network.
-I tried using another router and IP address and still couldn't get the sites to load. Reset both routers and restarted my computer as well without success.
-With the sites loading on other devices on the same network it leads me to believe that something went wrong in my Windows system.
-The sites don't load on any browser, FF, Chrome, Opera or Safari.
Hopefully I explained the issue clearly enough, any help is much appreciated, thanks.
