I did a clean install of Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on a home PC. The first thing I did was run sudo apt update. I then get this error:

E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/InRelease  403  Forbidden [IP: 91.189.88.142 80]
E: The repository 'http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal InRelease' is no longer signed.

I also get a popup window shortly after clean install "Hotspot Login", but internet works fine.

In Other Software I have two entries, Canonical Partners and Canonical Partners(Source Code).

I have searched questions and answers, some hint that it might be the firewall or internet proxy settings, though none of them hint at troubleshooting that, from which I have seen. I believe this is where my error is originating from?

EDIT: more information

when pasting the two http: address' into my browser, it works.

Output of command as requested by FedonKadifeli:

/etc/apt/sources.list:deb http://za.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal main restricted

grep: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*: No such file or directory

I borrowed someone else's wifi router with different ISP, and then it works. Which confirms my suspicion that it has something to do with internet proxy or network settings.
