It’s possible to easily reset your network settings by entering a few lines of code using Command Prompt or PowerShell on Windows, as well as Terminal on macOS.

How to reset network settings on Windows 10:

1. Press Win key + R, type cmd, and hit Enter to open Command Prompt
2. Write these commands (press Enter after each line):

   •  ipconfig/flushdns 

   • ipconfig/registerdns

18. Visit a website by IP address

When you access a website, you normally enter its domain name in the address bar. The role of your DNS resolver is to figure out what remote server you’re trying to reach by translating the domain name into an IP address. However, if your DNS resolver isn’t doing its job properly, you could end up with page navigation errors such as ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE.

If you don’t want to go through the trouble of fixing or replacing your DNS resolver to access a website on the spot, just cut off the middleman by directly entering its IP in the address bar. Just keep in mind that this workaround requires for a website to exist and for you to learn its IP address. And the easiest way to do that is by using the ping command (or by trying a Google search).

How to find out a website’s IP address using ping (Google example):

1. On Windows
   • Click the Start button, search for Command Prompt, and press Enter
   • Run ping google.com
2. On macOS
   • Press Command + Spacebar, search for Terminal, and open this app
   • Type sudo killall-HUP mDNSResponder and press Return

The website’s ping address is shown in square brackets, next to the domain name. However, if the ping statistics return 0% packet loss, you won’t discover the IP address because the website doesn’t exist.

In the following steps, launch Google Chrome and type the IP in the address bar to load the website.

19. Use Google Translate as a proxy

An alternative way to access a website that blocks all connection requests from your IP address is by using Google Translate as a proxy. The website will load the page for Google which, in turn, will relay the message back to you.

Here’s an example:

1. Visit Google Translate
2. In the translation box, type or paste the website’s URL
3. Select the language in which you want to translate the website. Or, set the same language on both sides
4. Click the button that opens a new tab
5. Explore the website in Google Translate

20. Change your DNS servers

If your DNS resolver doesn’t work properly, you can change your DNS server configuration into something else. For example, you can use Google Public DNS, OpenDNS or Cloudflare. These services provide free and secure DNS servers that protect your system from DNS hijackers and speed up your Internet connection.

How to use Google Public DNS on Windows 10:

1. Make sure to log in to Windows 10 with admin rights
2. Click the network icon in the systray and select Network & Internet settings
3. At Advanced network settings, click Change adapter options
4. Select your Internet connection, right-click it, and go to Properties
5. Stay in the Networking tab
6. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click Properties
7. In the General tab, select Use the following DNS server addresses
8. Set Preferred DNS server to 8.8.8.8
9. At Alternate DNS server, type 8.8.4.4
10. Check the Validate settings upon exit box
11. Click OK
12. Relaunch Chrome and try to visit a website

How to use Google Public DNS on macOS:

1. Click the Apple button to open a menu
2. Select System Preferences
3. Go to Network > Advanced
4. Select the DNS section

21. Check your network drivers

You might have trouble with your general Internet connection due to your network device and drivers. For example, if you connected a Wi-Fi adapter into your PC, perhaps the device was not properly installed. In that case, you should be able to fix the problem by unplugging and reattaching the Wi-Fi adapter.

Otherwise, your network driver could be obsolete, thus preventing you from going online and displaying the ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE when trying to use Google Chrome.

How to update network drivers on Windows 10:

1. Right-click the Start button and go to Device Manager
2. Select your network interface, right-click it, and choose Update driver
3. Kliknij opcję Wyszukaj automatycznie sterowniki
4. If the search results don’t show anything, click Search for updated drivers on Windows Update

1. Open the Apple menu and choose Software Update
2. macOS will search and download any available updates
3. Enter your admin username and password if requested
4. Restart your Mac
5. Open Chrome and check for errors

You can also use a driver update application to keep all your devices up to date, not just the network adapter. It scans all your computer’s devices, figures out which have obsolete drivers, and downloads newer versions from the web.

How to roll back network drivers on Windows 10:

If you have a driver that’s not compatible with your network adapter or operating system, you should immediately roll it back to the previous version, in order to undo changes and restore your computer’s Internet connection.

1. Press Win key + R, type devmgmt.msc, and press Enter to launch Device Manager
2. Right-click your network interface and select Properties
3. Go to the Driver section
4. Click Roll Back Driver and proceed with the on-screen steps. If you can’t click it because the button’s greyed out, skip this step because you can’t complete the rollback (no previous driver exists on your PC)
5. Uruchom ponownie komputer
6. Launch Chrome and check for errors

22. More ways to enhance your Internet connection

If your Internet connection is too slow, Chrome might show the ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE error on the screen when trying to visit a website that takes too long to load. Here are some suggestions to speed up your web connection:

• Move your device closer to the router
• Connect to the 5Ghz Wi-Fi connection if the router supports this feature
• Close all other applications that might be draining your network resources, including torrenting clients, streaming apps, and multiplayer games
• Kick other devices currently connected to your Wi-Fi network
• Temporarily switch from Wi-Fi to wired mode
• Connect to 4G cellular data

23. Disable your VPN or proxy server

VPN services and proxy servers change your network configuration to mask your IP address and geo-location, protect your privacy, and help you access blocked websites. However, if the settings are incorrect, they will likely render your Internet connection useless.

To fix this problem, simply turn off your VPN or proxy before attempting to use Chrome. We already talked about uninstalling Chrome plugins, so follow those steps if you have VPN or proxy extensions set up.

If you have native VPN or proxy apps, just disable them. Since Chrome doesn’t have integrated proxy settings like Firefox, it uses your system-wide proxy configuration. So, if you have manual VPN or proxy connections set up, here’s how to turn them off.

How to disable VPN and proxy on Windows 10:

1. Right-click the Start button and select Network Connections
2. Select VPN on the left part of the window
3. If there’s a VPN connection established, select it and click Disconnect
4. Switch to Proxy on the left side
5. Make sure that Automatically detect settings and Use setup script are disabled
6. Scroll down and ensure that Use a proxy server is also deactivated

How to disable VPN and proxy on macOS:

1. Open the Apple menu and pick System Preferences
2. Go to Network > VPN
3. If you have an active VPN connection, select it and click Disconnect
4. Now, choose your Internet connection and click the Advanced button
5. Select Proxies and turn off all proxy settings
6. Click OK

How to disable VPN and proxy on Android:

1. Go to Settings > Network > VPN
2. If there’s an active VPN connection, turn it off
3. Tap and hold your Internet connection
4. Choose Modify network
5. Select Show advanced options and set Proxy to None

How to disable VPN and proxy on iOS:

1. Head over to Settings > General > VPN
2. Disable any ongoing VPN connection
3. Pick your Wi-Fi and open its advanced settings
4. Set HTTP Proxy to Off

24. Use a premium VPN

If you’re keen on using a VPN, drop any freebies you might be experimenting with, in exchange for a reliable service that won’t let you down, such as NordVPN. With over 4400 servers spread across more than 60 countries, it’s one of the best VPNs in the world.

NordVPN has super-secure VPN servers optimized for streaming, torrenting, gaming, and secure browsing. It comes with a built-in malware blocker for web browsers called CyberSec, along with support for the OpenVPN and NordLynx protocol (a modded version of WireGuard).

Furthermore, NordVPN has proprietary DNS servers, an emergency kill switch, and a Smart DNS service that lets you watch Netflix US on devices without native VPN support, such as gaming consoles and Smart TV.

The virtual private network app can be installed on all popular platforms, including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Chrome, and Firefox. It allows up to 6 simultaneous connections but, if you install it on your router in OpenVPN mode, you can share VPN access with all devices connected to your Wi-Fi network.

25. Make an exception for Chrome in your firewall

Your firewall might not allow Internet access to Chrome. This shouldn’t normally happen because Chrome changes your firewall settings automatically during installation. But you should check your firewall configuration nonetheless. Unless you have a third-party firewall app installed, you have to change Windows Defender settings.

6. Once Google Chrome is added to the list, check its box, together with the Private and Public boxes
7. Click OK and exit
8. Launch Chrome and check for errors

26. Clear temporary system files

Windows stores temporary data in its cache to access files faster and improve your computer experience. However, if the data cache doesn’t get regularly cleared, you might end up with browser functionality issues and error codes like ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE on Chrome.

To clear temporary system files, you can turn to a third-party application like CCleaner. But if you don’t want to install any programs, you can use the Disk Cleanup utility that’s built into Windows.
