    Hi. I'm David, and I'm happy to help you.

    Please clarify the following:

    • Does the error appear in all browsers or just Chrome?
    • Do you have a VPN installed on your system?
    • Have you tried clearing your browser cache or changing your DNS?
    • Does the error come with a specific code, such as "ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT" or "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN"?
    • Do you know if the problem started after a Windows or Chrome update?
    • Do you have a third-party antivirus or firewall installed?
    • Are you on a home, corporate, or public network?

    I await your reply.
