Hi all. Sorry to have missed meetings and not been in contact so
it's a bit awkward asking for help. But I will!<br>
I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 on an acer laptop. Until a few weeks ago
all things google worked fine and it was my primary search engine.
It started slowing down trying to connect to google.com,
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.google.com">www.google.com</a>, <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.google....you">http://www.google....you</a> get the idea. Eventually,
about 2 weeks ago it just stopped connecting at all. So:<br>
<br>
I checked every forum and help page I could find. I changed DNS
servers to open DNS, googleDNS, changed all configuration files to
reflect those changes, many command line instructions and on and on.
None of the Solved marked issues solved my problem even though the
symptoms were the same.<br>
I run 2 VMs, Ubuntu 16.10 and FreeBSD. Both of those machines can
use google as normal. that seems weird to me.<br>
I can load something like groups.google.com and then chose apps like
gmail, drive, photos and several others but not calendar or maps
(which is what I really want). I can use all those apps on the VMs
though. <br>
In 16.04 no browser loads google. com<br>
I can ping google.com with no packet loss.<br>
I'm stumped.<br>
Help?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
Brian<br>
