If you are able to use the internet, for example, you are able to search for help. Then your DNS is mostly working. You just need to set the server address as automatic.  1) On your keyboard, press Windows logo key and I at the same time, and then choose Network. 

2) Scroll down a little bit and choose Network and Sharing Center on the right pane. 

3) On the left side of the pane, choose Change adapter settings. 

4) Right-click the internet connection listed and choose Properties. 

5) Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click Properties. 

6) Make sure that you have ticked Obtain an IP address automatically and Obtain DNS server address automatically. Then click OK to save and exit. 

Try connect now. If the problem stays, go to method 2. 

2. Define DNS Server by Yourself

If setting the DNS server as automatic did not help you with this problem, then it is likely that your DNS can’t find the route to Microsoft servers. In such case, try:  1) Repeat 1) to 5) in the first method. And you will be in the Properties window. 

2) Select Use the following DNS server addresses first. If the box for your Preferred DNS server is filled, you may need to mark it down.  Then fill the blanks with 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 respectively, as shown in the screen shot.
