Have you enabled ipv6?
Are you using a different DNS provider or the ISP supplied ones?
Try a different DNS Server. Here's a few. Also remember to change the ipv6 dns server if ipv6 is enabled.
CloudFlare
IPv4: 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1
IPv6: 2606:4700:4700:0:0:0:0:1111 and 2606:4700:4700:0:0:0:0:1001
GoogleDNS
IPv4: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
IPv6: 2001:4860:4860:0:0:0:0:8888 and 2001:4860:4860:0:0:0:0:8844

DNS was the issue, thanks!

Glad you got it working. PBe sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
