How about if you use another name server? E.g. 8.8.8.8
(Set the connection to be DCHP addresses only.) And/or try connecting to
a website using its IP address (*).

Failing that, how about altering your browser headers to say you are a
different browser/OS? E.g. pretend you are Safari on ios.  (Even better,
if you suspect browser headers are the problem, you could use curl, to
first imitate your real browser's headers (-H flag; use developer tools
to find out what headers your failed requests are sending) then remove
them one at a time, until it works and you find the one triggering the
failure.)
