Being able to ping localhost doesn't really prove that you can route network traffic, it's just proving that the interface is up and the loopback (127.0.0.1) address is responding.

Check system preferences, see what the default gateway is and see if you can ping that...

Also check the IP address assigned, DNS servers and router address for both IPv4 and IPv6.

Router. And there are threads here on wifi issues. Tried Ethernet?

Out if date model or firmware, weak security, even AVAST and few other products.

Being able to ping IP doesn't mean that it's not related to dns, could hit the IP address but the resolver cannot go any further?\

What does nslookup give you if you look up things such as www.apple.com or even try to ping www.apple.com

What do you get when browsing to https://2.16.21.112/
hello again
I had denied outgoing packets of my laptop in my router settings.
Thank you
