Can you change the way it connects, by using another wired or wireless connection?

It might be the network hardware.

Hi everyone. I have a problem with my brothers PC

Since Saturday (the 22. of January) his PC can only connect to some websites (Bing, Google, YouTube, Facebook)

I tried basically everything. I checked settings. I updated the BIOS. I reinstalled Windows. I replaced the Ethernet Cable. I even tried the Ubuntu Live enviroment. Nothing helped. Everytime the same Problem.

Every other device in the House is fine and can still connect just fine.

Anyone got any Ideas?

 

Thanks in advance ^^

I tried a USB Ethernet Adapter and now it works again.

 

So yes. It was the Hardware.

Thanks
