[SOLVED] Network interruption Issues

[2e7en]

Hello,

I've been experiencing network issues. When visiting certain websites, my connection disconnects and starts back up after a little while. For example, some websites that make this happen every time are tmz.com and imdb.com. I also have experienced this when playing Fall Guys recently. I've also encountered some weird access denied websites, for example when visiting urbanoutfitters.com I get "Access Denied - You don't have permission to access "http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/" on this server. Reference #18.37a93817.1597612708.1f2db7ba". I'm connected via ethernet and when I do all of this on my ipad or iphone through the wi-fi, it does not happen. The websites work just fine on my devices. I purchased a wifi adapter for my desktop thinking it would work like it does on my devices but it still happens. My ISP is WOW!, connected through a ARRIS modem. Also attached my PC specs below in case thats needed.

Thank you!

Start by disabling IPv6 on your motherboard.

Yep, first try that.

If that doesn't work, boot up a linux live cd/usb and see if you still have the issue.

Time to try the linux live cd/usb test.

Do you have a link to see what this is exactly?

Actually before this, see if you can disable ipv6 on your ethernet adapter in windows:

Then reboot and try again and see if anything changes.

Could be if windows is borked. Best way to determine this is to try a linux live cd/usb that will load a completely different operating system into memory without touching windows for us to test with.

Write this to a cd/dvd:
https://www.spi.dod.mil/docs/TENS-3.0.1_public.iso

Then boot with that cd/dvd. You will have a browser that you can check sites and see if the problem is still there. If so, then the problem is elsewhere. If no problem, it's a windows issue--probably malware.

If you don't have a cd/dvd but have a usb, you can use rufus to write the iso to a usb drive:
