Re: cant access certain websites
Start your PC in safe mode with networking, try another browser etc, you aren't even telling us what browser you are running so how can people help?

Re: cant access certain websites
Its probably because you have one of the new Sky '2' addresses. Keep trying and you will probably connect. Try a different browser.

Re: cant access certain websites
ive got chrome, internet explorer and firefox.. they are all the same
about 40% of websites say they cant be accessed on each browser
im getting a speed of 8190 mb, ive checked on the router. they said it should be speeding up to 11 mb within the next 10 days, but this cant be the problem
sky said it could be an issue with my PC, everything seems fine with the pc..
and thanks for your reply's guys

Re: cant access certain websites
Go to CMD and type 'ipconfig /flushdns'.
Also conduct 'tracert bbc.co.uk' in CMD and copy paste your stats.

Re: cant access certain websites
The issue lies at your end. Could be a corrupted Ip stack. Check your firewalls, antiviruses.
Also type the following commands in CMD and restart your computer.
netsh winsock reset catalog
netsh int ip reset reset.log
You will have to run CMD as administrator. (right click -> run as admin)

Re: cant access certain websites
Try pinging 212.58.254.252 from a Command Prompt, if you don't get a reply, open the Router Settings and click the Diagnostics tab, put in 212.58.254.252 and press ping. Do you get a reply.
I am fairly sure it is your IP address that is not getting recognised.
