It seems like you're experiencing some issues with your LAN settings being grayed out on your computer, preventing you from accessing web pages except for specific applications like Skype or online games. This can be frustrating but can often be resolved by checking a few settings. Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue:

1. Check LAN Settings in Internet Options:​

• Open Internet Explorer.
• Go to the Tools menu and select Internet Options.
• In the Internet Options window, go to the Connections tab.
• Click on the LAN settings button.
• Ensure that the "Automatically detect settings" option is selected and the other options are unchecked.

2. Check Network Adapter Settings:​

• Press Windows key + R, type "ncpa.cpl", and hit Enter to open the Network Connections window.
• Right-click on your active network connection and select Properties.
• Make sure that Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) is checked.

3. Check Proxy Settings:​

• Press Windows key + R, type "inetcpl.cpl", and hit Enter.
• Go to the Connections tab and click on LAN settings.
• Ensure that the "Use a proxy server for your LAN" option is unchecked.

4. Update Network Drivers:​

• It's also recommended to update your network adapter drivers. You can do this through the Device Manager by right-clicking on your network adapter and selecting Update driver.

  5. Restart the Computer:​

• Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve network issues by resetting configurations. Try these steps and see if they help in resolving the issue with your LAN settings being grayed out. If the issue persists, additional troubleshooting may be necessary. Let me know if you need further assistance!
