Often wonder what is wrong in the internet? We will find more about this in this post.
Browsing the internet and found error 404? And there are more error codes which we encounter like site not found, etc. So now the question is that why this happens? What does this mean? And what should we do ? Let's find out.
Error Codes
1. 404- Website not found. It denotes that user(client) was not able to connect with the requested page.
2. 401- Unauthorized page. It denotes that user(client) was trying to visit a page that is restricted to be visited. This is possible if you try to access a page and enter wrong login
information.
3. 400- Bad request. This is what you see if your application(mostly web browsers) was not able to retrieve information from the website.
5. 500- Internal Server Error. This occurs when server does not responds correctly. Reason can be different then one expects. And by the way this is the most searched HTTP error code in Google.
Other Reasons
Slow Internet: This is perhaps the most common reason for not able to visit a website. Many countries still don't have proper access to 4g. Moreover there are certain places where Internet is absent till date.
Tip: Keep your Internet connection metered to prevent automatic Windows Updates in Windows 10.
Not Connected: There are instances when we are not connected to Internet. At that moment we see a error screen if we try to access a particular website.
Reasons for showing not connected:
You can use Internet Troubleshooter and that will help you in finding the possible reason for this error.
DNS Server-DNS full form is Domain Name System. It helps in translation of the website address you are visiting to and converts that into IP address. Sometimes users face problems in accessing websites showing "DNS server not responding". I will deal on this in detail in future as I need to do a lot of research on DNS Server. Many times this is the main reason for not reaching a page.
