Why does VPN stop working after return from windows sleep or hibernate

HI,

I am absolutely fed up of Bitdefender VPN not working after returning from sleep or Hibernate on Win10Pro. From a restart everything works as expected, then after sleep 'silence'...

I am running subscription version 25.5.1.9 on a Dell Alienware area51.

There are no obvious error messages, just that no websites can be accessed (using Firefox). Also Outlook can no longer pickup incoming mail.

If I stop/disable VPN it all always starts working again.

If I restart VPN it usually starts working, not always.

This should be simple stuff!

Insofar as I am aware I am running the latest versions of everything.

Regards,

Dave
