Is Firewall Public, or...?
I'm in Auto-Pilot- I ticked Public in FW settings/reboot, but I can't find where to Verify that It's Public?
Do I need to be in a different mode, or what?

Hi,
You should look in the Network Adapters tab, to see what "mode" the Firewall is in:
- Open Bitdefender and click on View Features
- Click the gear icon under Firewall
- Under Network Adapters, you can check if your adapter (Ethernet or Wi-Fi) is set as public or not.0 -

It took me a couple of tries (Finally clicked on the Lower Public box, instead of the Upper), but I still don't know if I'm Public?-
Please see snip0 -
Hi,
As it's explained at the bottom of the window, with the Dynamic setting you are allowing the product to decide what sort of network the computer is connected to. For a LAN network, most likely home/office settings will be applied.
You can use the drop-down from the right side to switch to public if you wish.

As you see from my snip (No pre - I clicked the B icon, and changed the Drop down box to Public, but Dynamic still shows?
Do I also have to click on Dynamic?0 -
That is just informational. If you click each one, it just give you the information about that type of network setting, thus the i symbol.0
