Npm Install Return Network Error Econnreset

Everytime I try installing packages using npm I get the following error

npm ERR! code ECONNRESET
npm ERR! errno ECONNRESET
npm ERR! network Invalid response body while trying to fetch 
 aborted
npm ERR! network This is a problem related to network connectivity.
npm ERR! network In most cases you are behind a proxy or have bad network settings.
npm ERR! network 
npm ERR! network If you are behind a proxy, please make sure that the
npm ERR! network 'proxy' config is set properly.  See: 'npm help config'

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     /home/delll/.npm/_logs/2020-12-28T19_03_23_239Z-debug.log

I have also installed docker node image and tried running docker run --rm $(pwd):/app node npm install in my folder, but it returns the same error.

I tried uninstalling node and installed it using NVM, but got the same error.

I have added custom google DNS 8.8.8.8, 8.8.8.4 to my WIFI, I thought it might cause this issue but even after setting the DNS setting to "automatically" I get the same error.

I am on Ubuntu 20.04 Focal. Please let me know if You need more information
