Cannot access modem settings when Bitdefender is installed

tprior@gmail.com

Hi,

Using latest version or BD Total Security.

I need to update my modem settings recently but couldn't access these no matter what I tried. Connection to the modem often timed out and occasionally after about 20 tries it would load the settings screen only for it to time out again. I tried adding the modem to the safe sites list as well as turning off all protections with no success.

I could however access the modem settings using my mobile phone which led me to suspect it was an issue with BD.

I uninstalled BD from one of my PC's and hey presto, accessing the modem settings is a breeze.

Not sure what can be done to make sure I have BD installed and can access my modem settings.

Thanks,

Toby
