I used youtube-dl to download a video and use VPN to access youtube. After connect to the VPN my ip was changed and I can see youtube.com. But after try to download first video I can not download any thing and the log is:

ERROR: Unable to download webpage: <urlopen error [Errno 101] Network is
unreachable> (caused by URLError(OSError(101, 'Network is unreachable'),))

So I looking for solution for this error and just find somthing like this link:

https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/9438

And after I read it, I can not find any solution for my case.

I try to curl address also but this try is faild and it shown me this error: * Could not resolve host: www.youtube.com * Closing connection 0 curl: (6) Could not resolve host: www.youtube.com

youtube-dl --version
2018.03.14

curl --version
curl 7.58.0 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.58.0 OpenSSL/1.1.1a zlib/1.2.11 

And wonderful thing is I can see youtube.com in my firefox browser but I can not access to it with curl or youtube-dl.

It seems somthing crashed after about 5 minutes and I can not access to youtube website.

After searching a lot, I realized that the problem was from CURL and VPN so I deleted the 'curl'. And 'youtube-dl' completely removed and reinstalled. And then it works for me.
