Having now rebooted into Fedora, I see that everything now appears and

When I started this thread, being able to connect to websites in
windows-7 but not being able to connect to the same URLs in Fedora had
me suspecting trouble in Fedora. But being able to connect to only
some web sites in windows-7 had me thinking there was also trouble
"out there" (beyond the scope of what I'm responsible for). It now
seems the trouble was all "out there".
A question on my mind is why was I able to connect to
google.com
forecast.weather.gov
wikipedia.org
in windows-7 but not Fedora-35?
That's hard to say. Maybe it was starting to get fixed by the time you
switched. Did you switch back and forth or only switch to Windows once?
Multiple times over 4-5 hours I
- powered down and powered up the modem;
- reset the modem;
- disconnected and reconnected the yellow ethernet cable; and
- rebooted the work station, trying both OSs.
So I switched back and forth multiple times. There also were other URLs
that worked in windows-7 but not Fedora-35, but I think 3 URLs were
enough of a sample for this thread.
A DNS issue could cause the symptoms you saw. But without the
diagnostic tests being run during the problem time, there's no way to
tell for sure.
Another question...
It took multiple minutes for dnf, Firefox, and Thunderbird to decide to
give up on connecting. What is a reasonable time that should be
allowed, and how do I permanently customize those for that time?
