Unable to find the DNS address of the server

Hello,

For some time now, I have been unable to access the Internet on my computer and I don't know much about the field. When I try to go to YouTube via Chrome, for example, there is a message that says "This site is not reachable. Unable to find the DNS address of the server www.youtube.com"

Can you help me?
Thank you,

    Hello,

    If we strictly adhere to the error message, we could deduce that the DNS server authoritative for the domain www.youtube.com is down or misconfigured.

    But since YouTube works for me, I would say it's your DNS that's acting up. Try changing your DNS:

      Thank you for your response barnabe0057,

      I changed the DNS following the suggested steps, but the problem persists. I forgot to mention that my computer is connected to a wireless Wifi as well as an Ethernet cable from my router. I went into IPv4 and checked "Obtain an IP address automatically" and "Use the following DNS server address:" for both the Ethernet cable and the Wifi. Could the problem come from that?

      Thank you,
