Why don't some HTTPS sites work properly?












0















I've never seen this issue in the United States. I recently moved to Portugal and there were no issues at the first apartment. I moved to a second apartment in Portugal and started experiencing these issues:





  • Most websites work but some don't. For example python.org doesn't load for me - it just says "This site can’t be reached The connection was reset.". Sometimes(rarely) I can get it to work if I wait several minutes or reload the page several times.



    Another URL that does the same thing is this Shopify URL:



    https://cdn.shopify.com/assets2/application-66ed580b6640b5d9cb64593727d1ba5659fe75964aa3591d4a510e2af42ea646.css




  • The other major issue this is causing is that it's affecting one of my client's HTTPS sites and it's making it hard to work with. I've narrowed it down to this test where if I create a new page with this:



    <?php

    echo 'test1';


    and then vist that page in the browser it initially works properly and shows test1 on the page. But then if I change test1 to test2 and refresh the page then it will still show test1. In other words, I can't see any changes beyond the initial load - like there's some sort of caching going on.




All the above issues are happening on my PC laptop, two MacBooks and an iPhone - so the issues affect most devices. However the issue is not happening on my new Android Phone that is connected to the same wifi router.



I have tried changing my device DNS to 8.8.8.8 but that doesn't fix anything.



How can I get to the bottom of this? It seems like it has something to do with the modem/router in this new apartment. The modem/router in question is the technicolor tg784n v3.
