This just started happening today.
when I try to access wikipedia.org on any browser on my Windows 10 PC (Chrome or Edge), it just times out with:

This site can’t be reached​

www.wikipedia.org took too long to respond.

Try:
  • Checking the connection
  • Checking the proxy and the firewall
  • Running Windows Network Diagnostics
ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT

However, on my Android phone, on the same wifi network, it loads quickly without any issues.
I have tried resetting the network adapter:
Code:
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns


And then rebooting. No effect.
Then tried flushing the routing tables:

Checked the hosts table in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc - there are no active entries
Reset all routes: route -f
Turned off Windows Firewall

Rebooted after each of these and still no joy

Any ideas??
