Sky Broadband blocking PC from Ethernet

Hi all,

For some very odd reason, Sky just blocks my device from using ethernet connections at certain times, this is sometimes the same for my WiFI. My PC is plugged into ethernet, it never works when I switch it on but after a few troubleshooting such as rebooting the hub several times, it works again. But, as soon as I switch my PC off and come back the next day, the same issue repeats. What's going on?

Please also note, some websites remain working all the time. Gmail and Youtube work even though the rest of the websites do not. My PC says there is connection so I imagine it's something wrong with Sky's fireware. If there is a fix, or some help for this, than that would be amazing.

Cheers
