Need to be able to ping a domain (branchtf.com)

I try to ping something like www.google.com to start with however it just returns the error 'Destination host unreachable.' (I also was previously able to ping 8.8.8.8 on the pcs however I believe I've broken it with all the troubleshooting, BranchR can still ping 8.8.8.8 of course). I have been at this for multiple days, any support or fix is greatly appreciated. If there is anything more I need to provide I gladly will.

that´s because the DNS is wrong

It should be

www.branchtf.com  192.168.76.2

@meltingiceyt1234 

check the file I am attaching. I am able to ping www.branchtf.com as long as www.google.com

I found at least two mistakes. The DNS that you were providing to hosts is 8.8.8.8, which is incorrect. You should be providing the IP address 192.168.76.2, which is your DNS server.

On the Router ISP, you had one Access list that was blocking any traffic coming from 192.168.0.0 which includes your local network, and it was preventing your local network to ping the www.google.com

That works perfectly thankyou! Just wondering as the laptops still cannot ping Google, how do I go about fixing this?

It should. The version I shared is able to. Try to close the project and open again.

Sorry, ping was the wrong word. I mean I also want to be able to load up this webpage (www.branchtf.com) on the built in web browser. I think I have some serious issues with how I've setup my server.
