// You should get Auth Token in the Blynk App.

  Blynk.begin(auth, ssid, pass);
  // You can also specify server:

Try changing your Blynk.begin statement to this:
Blynk.begin(auth, ssid, pass, "blynk-cloud.com", 8080);

If that doesn’t work, but it’s working fine via a mobile hotspot, then your ISP is blocking the Blynk traffic.

i tried searching the blynk commnity and found a lot of solution and none are working wich your solution is listed too.
if my isp is blocking the blynk traffic how could i solve the issue?

Either talk to your ISP, or change to a different one.
You’d obviously need to know in advance that the new ISP wasn’t going to do the same thing, so maybe try a friends internet to see if they have the same issue?

i contacted the ISP and told me there is nothing wrong with the blynk traffic

The way to test it for sure is to reboot your router and try a simple sketch that gets the time from a network time server, then use the same device and connection to attempt to connect to Blynk.
