Can ping the website with domain name but can't browse them , why?












1















Some websites like twitter and facebook and youtube are blocked in my country so I need to use VPN so I can access to them , and I didn't have any problem with them until today



The problem is I can ping all these websites that I mentioned (with vpn on) but I can't browse them with chrome or firefox

I set my DNS with the resolveconf/head file and also I can connect with telnet to any of them telnet twitter.com 80 so I can make a TCP connection to them
The only change I made today was about wifi driver and as far as I know it doesn't have any effect on this (if it has tell me )



Is there any settings that I haven't looked at yet ?!



PS: All websites that aren't blocked work well, only have problem with blocked websites that shouldn't be blocked anymore when I'm using VPN ( I can ping them by their domain name but can't brows them with Browsers , that't really interesting !! )

  • It sounds like your connection is not being routed over your VPN. Could you run sudo route and add the output here.
