Ping request could not find host www.google.com. Please check the name and try again.

PS: Google Public DNS IP addresses are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

For example, when you type www.systosys.com on the browser address bar, your computer checks the respective IP address of the hostname systosys.com in the DNS lookup table.

1. Flush the DNS Lookup Table
   
   As we discussed before, the prime reason to get this error message is the corrupted DNS Lookup table on a computer. To fix it, we need to clear the current DNS Lookup table and get the latest DNS entries.
   
   • Open Command Prompt (Type command on the Windows search bar and click to open).
   • Type the command ipconfig/flushdns and press enter key.
     
     
   • Reboot your computer.
   Once the Windows Operating System successfully flushed the DNS Resolver cache, you will be able to access the website by typing the domain name.
   
   If the issue persists, you should go to the next step.
2. Change the Default DNS Server Assigned to Your PC
   
   You can change the default slower DNS server provided by the ISP with a faster and secure Google Public DNS or OpenDNS.
   
   

   Code: Select all

   OpenDNS	
   208.67.222.222
   208.67.220.220
   
   
   Google Public DNS	
   8.8.8.8
   8.8.4.4

   You can use either OpenDNS or Google Public DNS as the DNS server address on your computer. To do it on a Windows 10 device, follow the steps below.
   
   • Go to Settings and click Network & Internet.
   • Click on Change adapter options.
     
     
   • Right Click on the Active connection and click Properties.
   • Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click the Properties button.
     
     
   • Select the radio button Use the following DNS server addresses.
     
     
   • You can use either Google Public DNS address or OpenDNS.
     
     
     
     I use OpenDNS IP addresses to fill the Preferred DNS server and Alternate DNS server. Make sure you fill both preferred and alternate DNS server fields.
   • Click OK to complete the process.
   • Restart your PC.
