My internet says that I'm connected to the internet but when I try to open a browser or anything for that matter, it doesn't load. So I used Windows Network Diagnostics and it said "Your computer appears to be correctly configured, but the device or resource (DNS server) is not responding." And Google searches aren't that helpful.
So far I've unplugged the modem/router (it's the 2 in one kind) and waited 10 seconds before turning it back on. Restarting it didn't work. It also doesn't work on any other device in my house.
I'm currently using my cousin's DSL internet and it's quite irritating.
Well first ping to google.
Go to cmd then type: ping google.com
This is the first thing I do when similar things happen to me.

Ping request could not be sent to host google.com

Then it's internet connection.
Flush your dns and maybe try to wait a little longer after you disconnect the modem/router.. If that doesn't work it's prolly a physical problem so you should just call the ISP

Did you restart? Try unplugging the router/modem a night while you're asleep. (This is me troubleshooting)

What does flushing your DNS do?

Clears the cache.

Didn't work. Wondering if it's just something wrong with Comcast.
Well, after doing some research, it turns out Comcast has and outage/service down in the eastern half of Massachusetts, which is where I am, and some other places as well...Fuckin Comcast...
