    The fact that you can connect with RDP most likely rules out VirtIO drivers, so I'd suggest you check the built in firewall

    I would check DNS and set them to 1.1.1.1 1.0.0.1 as most likely this is the issue

    Strange that RDP is working while websites do not, most likely it is DNS misconfiguration as others said.

    However, the most reliable way to fix Windows network issues is network settings reset and manual IPv4/IPv6 configuration. As of my experience, sometimes there is something going wrong in Windows and it is impossible to troubleshoot.

    I always install Linux based OS first and write down all network settings.

    Then install Windows and connect with VNC. Now make changes in network settings to match earlier with Linux.

    Make sure to enable RDP settings in Windows OS.

    — I am sure right now only VNC is working and not RDP. check and confirm.

    I would check if you have:

    • Active network connection for the VPS from the node.
    • Proper IP configuration.
    • DNS Configuration.

    I think he is mistaken.

    He can connect with VNC …. not with RDP. Sometimes, the network settings are not configured properly by Windows OS templates. And that is the most likely reason.

    1. Open CMD and ping 1.1.1.1
      If works, change DNS to 1.1.1.1 and you have internet

    2. If ping fails, you need to ask your provider about your upstream gateway and IP address.

    3. If still doesn’t work you need to ask your provider to insert a virtio disk in your machine. They will know when you ask them. Install virtio drivers and try 1. - 2. again.
