Hippie Scuba Steve on Nostr: I'm running Windows 10 Home on a Dell laptop that is about 6 years old and use Google ...
I'm running Windows 10 Home on a Dell laptop that is about 6 years old and use Google Chrome as my web browser.
For about the last 3 weeks, I've had a lot of issues with websites that I commonly visit not loading intermittently and with Google search itself intermittently not loading results until I've tried repeatedly.
I know there have been multiple Chrome updates during this time frame, but I seem to be having the same issue with Microsoft Edge.
My iPad and iPhone work fine (using Safari) and they are connected to the same Wi-Fi network (I'm using an Xfinity/Comcast XB8 Wireless Gateway).
I've tried clearing Chrome cache, cookies, etc. and flushing the DNS on my laptop (no success).
Any suggestions on what to try to resolve this issue?
