Title: Annoying probem with computer/windows/Internet SOLVED!!! :D
Post by: Mouth for war on Sat 17/09/2022 21:01:59
Hello my friends. When I try to access login.microsoftonline.com (Edge,chrome,Firefox) I get a "Can't reach this page" and there are obviously no spelling errors

On my phone I can access that page, no issues at all. Any idea why this is happening? I've tried lots of stuff but nothing helps :-/

Never had such problem with Sierra On-Line. But that address is too working alright here. Are you using something that could modify your DNS? (like pyhole)

Hi! No I don't think so. support.microsoft.com is also unavailable. It says ERR_ADDRESS_INVALID....I have no idea why this is happening :S

Try office.com (https://office.com) instead.

Visiting login.microsoftonline.com works for me; I get redirected successfully. Weirdly enough though, pinging that domain results in a timeout.
This is 99% a temporary issue and will disappear on its own. You can also add more DNS servers to your network connection's IPv4 properties, Google's for instance are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

I tried through office.com too and I get to the first page but pressing login gets me to a similar error page. I did change the DNS servers too....I'm completely stumped
