The Solution to this problem is to change the default MTU size for PPPoE connection. You can change this by logging to router configuration page by typing 192.168.0.1 and going to

Network>Wan>Advanced>MTU size (in bytes)

WAN-MTU-Size

Change MTU Size to 1460

Here change the default value of MTU size from 1500/1480 to 1460 and then save and reboot the router. After that you will able to open all the websites that were not opening before.
