Not able to access Internet in browsers on Mac but can access everywhere else
After I have upgraded to 10.9, I face this at least thrice or more a day(and would resolve only after a system restart):
Suddenly browsers(Chrome, Safari, Firefox - all of them) shall stop connecting to the Internet
- My other devices Android phone and RPi connects just perfect (even via Android Firefox and Chrome browsers). Not even speed problem or lag
- Even on my Mac every thing else i.e. Adium, Dropbox, CloudApp etc works just fine, they are connected to the Internet as they should be
- Just the browsers do not work. Not at all. Tried restarting them etc.
What I have not done or done:
- I have not made any system changes, I swear.
- When I try traceroute <website> it reaches their servers and does it fast as it does when I do with normal conenction(i.e. having Internet in the browsers)
Here's some background:
- I have updatd to Mavericks
- I connect to Internet via a Linksys Router and my MB Air is connected to router via Wi-Fi
- I've Sophos anti-Virus installed(for 6 months+)
- I have a raspberry pi(Ethernet) and an Anfroid phone(WiFi) connected to the same router and Internet (for 1 year+)
MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
