Please HELP.............

Open DNS would have been the most probable solution. If you have already tried, try using a different browser.

yes it happens to me too sometimes, websites like 'yahoo' or 'newegg' do not open for no apparent reason while others work no problem.It usually works after i reboot my computer and physically switch off the modem for about a minute and restart.Hope this helps...

Mention your modem/model make.
consult Dr TCP the MTU specialist!
DRTCP: How do I use it, & what are all these settings?

Already tried with Firefox3.5.3, IE8, Opera10, Chrome. But still having problem.

Try Comodo DNS or allow the system to automatically assign the DNS.

I had similar issue. Please check your wi-fi router's MTU setting. Router Admin page > Network > WAN > Advanced > MTU Size (in bytes). This could be different for your router

I hooked up my new router TP-Link TL-WR841N to broadband (BSNL).

Internet access was working great in
1. One of my laptops with Windows 8.1 OS
2. My Android mobile (Redmi 1S)

But I was facing the peculiar issue of only Google, YouTube (IPv6) sites opening while all other sites (IPv4) not opening in
1. one Windows 7 laptop
2. Nokia Lumia 520

After trying every solution suggested in the web, I finally hit one site, that suggested changing the MTU in router. My router's default MTU setting was 1480, which I changed to 1430. Voila! the issue is resolved.
