So you should try accessing the website via a different web browser. If the error persists, then that means the problem is not with your web browser but rather the network connection.

This includes the various extensions you have installed on your browser and more. In this case, you can try to disable the various add-ons/extensions you have installed on your browser and then try to pinpoint the culprit. Alternatively, you can also try accessing the website via the InPrivate or Incognito mode where all of the extensions are disabled by default if you haven’t changed the settings. Once you have located the troublesome extension, remove it from your browser and then try accessing the website. In case you are using Microsoft Edge, you can also try resetting the browser.

This can be due to the fact that there’s quite a load on the network and hence you are not able to get sufficient speed and so the connection is dropped.

Rebooting your router will assign you a new IP address and you will be able to test your connection to the webserver again. You can try rebooting your router 2-3 times just to be on the safe side. Here’s how:
Unplug the power to your internet device.Now, wait for at least 5 minutes.Plug in the modem/router and wait for the connectivity light to start blinking.
