Unable to Connect to Internet Without VPN
I was able to literally 1 hour ago.
I changed my DNS from Next DNS to CIRA Canadian Shield (Protected) to test it out.
Then I was only able to connect to the internet through Mulvad VPN.
Then I changed back to Next DNS and I observe the same behaviour.
How do I determine what is causing the problem?
How do I solve it?

Disconnect from the VPN.
try running: ping 8.8.8.8
If it responds your net is good.
try running: ping google.com
If it responds your dns is good.
A recent update to Mullvad VPN automatically enabled "Lockdown mode" for a lot people. Check if it is enabled and if so, disabling it should fix your issue.
Sounds like caching issue...? Have you done a complete reset? Like, shut everything down, then start up your modern, then router, then boot up your computer.
