    This Page Can't Be Displayed


    I'm having issues connecting to one website that I've verified is up, but not for me.

    Windows Network Diagnostics seems to indicates a problem with this website, but not for the internet in general.

    The windows network diagnostics report:

    Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this issue. I don't think there is anything wrong with my DSL modem.

    Regards

    Reset router and then reboot. If that doesn't work then if it is just one website let us know which browser you are using and the name of the website.

    Okay so I can't see any problem with that website. Consider trying the following if you have reset your router (by holding down the reset button) and have rebooted.

    Make sure that IE is not running then:

    Start> Control Panel> Internet Options

    Go to the "Security" tab and reset all zones to defaults.

    I don't have any other installed browsers.

    I've reset and rebooted the DSL modem, and reset all security zones to default level. They were in default level to begin with.

    I've also disabled my Internet security software, ESET Smart Security, and still no fix.

    Also let's check your HOSTS file.

    "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\HOSTS"

    Navigate to the HOSTS file and choose "edit"

    It should open in your text editor. Save as "hosts.txt" and choose save location as your desktop.

    Upload the file and attach it to a post here.

    OK, I'm back.

    I was working with Verizon DSL support. We tried a number of things, but ultimately they didn't solve the problem.

    We changed DSL modems. It didn't fix the problem. I'm back on my original DSL modem now.

    The original problem couldn't be bypassed by connecting through kproxy. Now, I can connect through kproxy.

    If I attempt to ping the site from the command prompt. I get a fail. I think that indicates the problem isn't with the browser.

    I also installed a different browser; Google Chrome. That didn't fix the problem either.

    If you can't ping the website from the command prompt, how do you troubleshoot that issue?
