Error: 410 Gone Your client has made a request for a BBC domain that is no longer hosted on Akamai, but the request was sent to an Akamai IP address. This suggests your client is using a very out-of-date DNS response

Who are you using for DNS? You can open a terminal or console and run nslookup google.com see screenshot

This is the response, which is gogglygook to me!

Server: 192.168.178.1 Address: 192.168.178.1#53

Non-authoritative answer: Name: google.com Address: 142.250.200.14

This was a waste of time! I searched the internet and rresolved the issue.

What resolved your issue?

I went to Preferences on my Apple laptop and selected Network, the WiFi & Advanced. I selected DNS, and entered 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 Information gleaned from intetrnet.

Good work, but that is what I said from the beginning. I assume you have a router, you will also need to make sure the settings are the same on it.
