My internet is not working properly

Question

I use wifi on my Windows 10 using my mobile hotspot. Recently, the connection stopped working properly. Some of the sites like - Facebook, Youtube, ilovepdf.com, support.hp.com are working. Other sites like coursera.org, amazon.in, pinterest.com and many others are not working. It says, their server IP could not be found. My mobile internet works on the laptop when tethered using the USB cable.

My proxy settings are set at automatic. I also ran the Windows Network Diagnosis. I have updated some Wireless LAN drivers also. I tried using other mobile phones also. I am still not able to access other websites.

Please help me find a solution

Try using another dns service. There is a public dns service by google. See [tutorial] how to change dns settings in winwods 101.

Set the ips to

8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

as shown on the screenshot. Those are google dns ips.

Now while the computer is restarting, start up the phone. Let everything get fully started and try the connection agan
