Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, kishan119.

If we understand your post correctly, you're not able to load a specific website on your Mac or on your iPhone. You're using your iPhone as a Personal Hotspot when this occurs. We’d like to help.


We'll need to troubleshoot your iPhone first. Once your iPhone is able to load the website your Mac will be able to load it.


Follow the steps in this article:


If you see No Service or Searching on your iPhone or iPad


If you're still unable to load the site let us know if you are able to load other websites.


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.

Dear Jeff_W,

Thankyou for your reply.


I followed the link but this did not work. I have reset my phone once but that too, did not work.


For websites it shows "ERROR_CONNECTION_RESET and ""DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN"" like I have mentioned earlier.

I tried google DNS but that did not lost long. So renew the lease and again on the same problem.

Hi there,


It happens with a few websites with errors i.e https://sci-hub.se/ (ERRO_CONNECTION_RESET) https://sci-hub.tw/ (DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN)


these websites previously were working fine but with time the problem was carried by many websites. When I used google DNS, a few websites worked but rest still don’t.


Sometimes with internet active, iPhone internet doesn’t work, shows ‘you internet is not active’ and after 2 or 3 min it automatically starts working.


also in iPhone, app “Spotify” keeps showing “connecting” and shows error related to Proxy and Firewall.
