 If nothing seems to work in your case, you may want to try resetting your computer’s host file.
+Note: What is a Computer's Hosts File?: A computer’s hosts file is a local text file that maps IP addresses to hostnames. When a user tries to access a website, the operating system first checks this file before querying DNS servers, allowing for custom or overridden mappings for specific domains.
+Here is the step-by-step guide to reset your computer’s host file:
+  * Go to Start and launch Notepad.
+  * Paste the following script into a new Notepad page:
+  # Copyright (c) 1993-2006 Microsoft Corp.
+  # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
+  # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
+  # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
+  # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
+  # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
+  # space.
+  # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
+  # lines or following the machine name denoted by a ‘#’ symbol.
+  # For example:
+  # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
+  # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
+  # localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
+  # 127.0.0.1 localhost
+  # ::1 localhost
+{{ :networking:enter-script-into-notepad-1.png?600 |}}
+Go to File > Save As.
+{{ :networking:select-save-as-1.png?600 |}}
+Assign the file an appropriate title (like hosts1), and click on OK to save it to your preferred location.
+{{ :networking:save-hosts-1-1.png?600 |}}
+  * Next, open the “Run” command using the Win + R shortcut.
+  * Type %WinDir%\System32\Drivers\Etc into the text box and press Enter.
+{{ :networking:type-windir-system-drivers-etc-1.png?400 |}}
+Search for the original hosts file here.
+{{ :networking:search-for-hosts-file-ezgif.com-webp-to-jpg-converter.jpg?600 |}}
+Right-click on it and select Rename.
+{{ :networking:proceso1.jpg?600 |}}
+Rename it to something like hostsOLD and hit Enter.
+{{ :networking:old.jpg?600 |}}
+Now, move the newly created hosts1 file from where you previously saved it to the %WinDir%\System32\Drivers\Etc directory.
+{{ :networking:old1.jpg?700 |}}
+If you’re prompted to confirm your action, select “Yes”.
+{{ :networking:confirm-your-action-1.png?400 |}}
+Now restart your PC and try running the ping command again.
