Solution 4: Check VPN Settings

Having many network configurations active at once is probably the single most likely cause of an unreliable Wi-Fi connection. You are able to access the internet while avoiding using your ISP if you use a virtual private network (VPN) or proxy server. It is quite typical for the virtual private network connection to be unstable owing to blocking at the nation level (such as in China). Nearly all virtual private networks, or VPNs, come equipped with a network lock feature that, when enabled, prevents users from accessing the internet even if the connection drops. It’s possible that this may create a disruption in connection, which will then lead to an error.

Verify that your Virtual Private Network (VPN) is operational, or disconnect to ensure that everything is operating normally with the internet and see whether the website loads properly in Google Chrome. If the ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED error persists, then try another fix.
