I've ran 6 different malware cleaners. Reset proxy settings. Reset network settings. Statically set IP Addresses. I can ping and resolve hostnames.
However, opening up web browsers Chrome, Firefox, Edge, IE, all have issues opening websites like google.com but can open some websites. Other machines work fine so I know it is locally to this machine.
I run and manage the network. The error I am getting is not a 404 but can't find the server at xxx domain. It act's like there is a proxy but all the proxy settings are not set or disabled.
C:\WINDOWS\system32>nslookup google.com
Non-authoritative answer:
Server: Wireless_Broadband_Router.home
Address: 192.168.1.1
Name: google.com
Addresses: 2607:f8b0:4008:80b::200e
216.58.219.174
Edit:
Tried a new account. No success. Set both DNS fields to Google. The system is also fully up-to-date
IS there anything else I can try to fix this?
Are you using a proxy? When you say you can't access google.com what do you mean exactly? Do you mean you get a, (404 error page, not responding, ect). Being able to ping a hostname and being able to navigate to the website hosted on the server from a security perspective are two entirely different things. Trivial action as an Administrator to allow one action and not the other. – Ramhound – 2016-12-13T21:36:51.677
What happens if you do a
nslookup
on google.com? – Ramhound – 2016-12-13T21:52:35.623No proxies and I disabled all the proxy settings. The kicker is some websites work just fine but other don't. domains resolve to the correct IPs as well – Jason – 2016-12-13T21:52:38.410

Update your question; Have changed the DNS servers to some other provider? – Ramhound – 2016-12-13T21:55:08.800
DNS server IPs are the local router and then 8.8.8.8 for Google. – Jason – 2016-12-13T21:56:12.053
On one of the problem clients, change the DNS servers to just Google, eliminate the router from the equation at least when it comes to the DNS. The next step, would have the router assign the client a static ip address, and remove it's DHCP service entirely from the equation. – Ramhound – 2016-12-13T22:03:28.663
DNS - NSLOOKUP what is the meaning of the non-authoritative answer? – Ramhound – 2016-12-13T22:09:23.230
1If you assign 2 DNS servers as DNS server and the first one responds even though the answer given is incorrect, the second one is never contacted. So 8.8.8.8 is not used at all. I would start restarting the router. It will likely fix your issues. – LPChip – 2016-12-13T22:10:23.560
@LPChip - My suggestion takes the router's DNS out of the equation for the time being. Netgear has a huge exploit they recently confirmed in the news. Many malicious things could be going on with the router. – Ramhound – 2016-12-13T22:13:51.337
"The system is also fully up-to-date" this means your using x.576? – Ramhound – 2016-12-13T23:57:46.237
Test on your phone as its a different network (I know it's an old post but this comment may help others) – Dave – 2017-05-05T18:52:56.403
