Seems like a obvious DNS issue. Change the DNS to 4.2.2.1 or 8.8.8.8.
If you are not sure how to just do a quick Google search :wink:

post your snr & line attn values from modem's connection status/info page.also scan your c drive using antivirus with updated definitions like kaspersky/norton/avast etc.

Well, the best solution to your problem would be....move to a faster connection.
