traceroute msn.com works , wget http://msn.com just hangs. so what can effect web access but not traceroute ?

I have a problem that seems similar to this. Connectivity starts out fine but after a while things like apt, curl, get stop working, just hang. Problem is cleared for a while by shutting down WSL, logging out and back into Windows, then relaunching WSL. I do not know what triggers the internet connectivity to stop working. Like OP, I see name resolution and pings working.

Same here. Pings works but all conections to any repo were dead.

Could you please follow the steps below and attach the diagnostic logs? https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#collect-wsl-logs-for-networking-issues

Doing these solved my problem:
Open Hyper-V Manager as administrator

Select your pc, open Virtual Switch Manager

Select WSL

Set to external network

Select the network card the traffic runs through

Then login to wsl2 terminal and configure an IP address. E.g.

sudo ip addr flush dev eth0
sudo dhclient eth0
