Hi People,
Any help with this will be appreciated.

Two computers connected via lan to a wifi network, connecting a tab or phone via wifi does the same thing. All websites except google, gmail, facebook and youtube work fine (a bit slow sometimes). This is with firefox and ie

trying to load gmail gives:
An error occurred during a connection to mail.google.com. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. (Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)

Trying to load youtube orgives:
WARNING! Your Flash Player may be out of date. Please update to continue

Trying to load google:
Firefox can't find the server at www.google.co.za

Trying to load facebook:
The server at www.facebook.com is taking too long to respond.

If you say same issue occurs when connecting via phone or tablet, did you by any chance manually set the DNS OR IP addresses on those PC's?

I might have done so mistakenly but not that I am aware of.
 
Change your DHCP device to give out DNS:
primary 8.8.8.8
secondary 8.8.4.4

Is the dhcp device my router?
Currently it is says:
Preferred DNS server : 37.1.193.207
Alternate DNS server : 8.8.8.8
 
Format the questionable pc.

no, it's not a hack

Please ignore my post it seems to have offended some ppl.

Facebook and Gmail:

That right there is *very* suspect!!
Change the preferred to 8.8.8.8 and the alternate to 8.8.4.4 and your problems will be solved.
 
Oh and once you have made the changes then make sure your username/passwords are not default on the router itself.
By the naming it looks like a dlink to me which has alternate credentials for login other than admin, change all of them!!!
 
Just have a look at the time,date and regional settings on the computers. I had the same kind of problem and it ended being a wrong year set.

-change DNS on routers to the ones rocket boy advised.
-confirm the PC's don't have manual DNS either -go to network connections, click properties, select Intent protocol v4 select properties, and check whats loaded there.

and restart before testing
