Hi,

I understand that you're encountering a “misdirected” error while trying to access your college website.

  1. Try using a different browser or Incognito mode to see if the issue still occurs.
  2. Flush DNS and renew IP: Type CMD in the search bar, right-click on Command Prompt, and select Run as administrator. Then, copy and paste the following commands one at a time and press Enter after each:

ipconfig /flushdns

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew

Restart your computer.

  1. Check Date and Time Settings Go to Settings > Time & Language > Date & Time and enable auto-sync.

If the issue persists, it’s likely on your college’s server side. In this case, I suggest reaching out to your college’s IT department and explaining the issue. Include any error codes or messages, along with a screenshot if possible.
