Zoom works, but my browser is down

A friend of mine has two computers connected to the same router. One machine works perfectly fine, but on the second one, apps like Zoom, uTorrent, and Call of Duty function normally, yet he can't load a single webpage. He already had his ISP reset the router, but that didn't change a thing.

P.S.
I explained this exact issue in another thread, but since I didn't get any responses, I decided to start a new one. 🙂

What browser are they using? They should try a couple of different ones first. If it works on those, then just run an update on their usual one (the one that's acting up).
If that doesn't do the trick, maybe port 80 is blocked. It’s probably not the case, but based on what you said, it’s definitely possible.

If that doesn't fix it, then Port 80 might be blocked. It isn't particularly likely given the details provided, but it remains a possibility.

They have already tried Google Chrome, Microsoft, and Apple—all with the same failing results. I did stumble upon some mention of it being a DNS address issue, though I haven't found a clear explanation for it yet. 🤣

Maybe it's a VPN issue? Try going to
Edge --> Tools --> Internet Options --> Connections --> LAN Settings --> and just uncheck the box for the VPN.

Bless you, my friend—it works now. 😉
