So my problem was I couldn't ping IP addresses. So I looked up a tutorial I followed this EXACT thing and now I can't connect firefox everything says its connecting but it never loads no error message nothing. Here is exactly what I did that now gave me this problem.

resets the ipv4 interface

netsh interface ip reset

flush and reregister DNs

ipconfig flushdns net stop dnscache net start dnscache ipconfig /registerdns

clear persistent routes
route print -f
:: start / restart mrxdav
net stop netbt
net stop mrxdav 2>nul
net start mrxdav
net start netbt
::  clean the arpcache
arp -a -d 
 :: I might have the order of the switches backwards and the order matters, so if that doesnt do anything put the -d before the -a
:: make sure winhttp and webclient  services are running (this is a mystery to me / neither appear necessary, but both have fixed my problem on various occasions)
net start webclient
net start winhttp

Best would be to ask advice at a Windows oriented forum if you have broken your internet connection.
