Stop bitdefender blocking unsecure connection

Options

Hi,

I'm currently travelling and think that BD is auto blocking internet access because the network password does not meet the security requirements.

I can connect to the same network with multiple phones / tablets. I can connect to other networks with the affected windows device. It did very briefly work, but seems to have stopped again.

I've tried adding the network to Home category under Vulnerability section - no fix.

I've tried enabling unsecure connection in the BD VPN app - no fix.

I can't see an obvious alert for the network.

I can't see an obvious way to allow access in firewall.

(I don't use BD VPN, and frankly, it just acts like bloatware).

Can anyone help?

Thanks!
