Hello,

I assume you are more comfortable with English than Japanese, so I'll answer with English.

I'd say you have right ideas of those words, but we always need to understand what kind of situation you are talking about.

”どうでしょう” has two usages.
(1) to ask others' idea （like you know) "What do you think?" "How about...?"
(2) to suggest what to do "Why don't you(we) do...?" In Japanse, ”..(.するの)はどうでしょう（いかがでしょう）？”

”どうして” usually used for queastions. So it's more like "Why?"
If you say "What's wrong?", it's understood as ”どうしたの？””なにかあったの？”

I hope you see the differences :)

お礼

なるほど。分かりました。

「どうでしょう」in English,
it's different by the situation.
For example, you make a dinner for your friends and
say「（味は）どうでしょう」, it means "How about it?",
"How do you feel?", or "Do you like it?", etc.

Another way of using「どうでしょう」, it means like
"It's my secret.", "I don't want to tell you　now." .
In case, somebody asks you "Do you have a girlfriend?",
and you don't want to answer it, you can say 「どうでしょう。」

「どうして」in English, simply, "Why?" .

...sorry, I'm not good at English! lol
