I cannot connect to xbox live or anything on my chromebook like google, bing etc (other than askjeeves, which is how I'm on here)

I've tried resetting my router, didn't work. I've turned both my modem and router off for 5 minutes too, still nothing.

When I try to connect to anything it says : THIS PAGE IS NOT AVAILABLE : DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN || I've went to details and ran a diagnostic test and it says everything is working fine.

I've searched a YouTube video on how to fix it but he was using a windows laptop and it won't work on a chromebook.

How can I fix this? Will rep anyone who tries to help, thanks.

It does the same thing to me, the only way I can use internet is with an Ethernet cable.

Has it happened to you recently (within last hour) or for a while?

Not sure then, I'd leave your stuff unplugged for 8 hours


Don't fancy doing that as I'm not even tired but thanks anyway

Ah okay, hopefully it doesn't happen to me for 2 weeks. I'll have to get in contact with ISP when they're open, thanks for reply.
