You can try flushing your DNS cache, which forces your computer to request fresh DNS information. On Windows, use the command `ipconfig /flushdns` in the command prompt. On macOS, use `sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder`. You can also try changing your DNS servers to a public DNS provider like Google DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1).
